Empire
Pieces of the world were born in Rome,
seeping into memories like water in the loam.
From the mind of Caesar, seed of the empire.
Far from the senet and its opulent liars.
A celestial prodigy from the roman ideals.
An unspoken agreement from the rancor now appeals
Soaked with bronze
Rising king on falling pawns
The echoes of betrayal fill the air:
Foreign walls are suffused with rage and despair
Winds of war are blowing on the conquered limes.
A die is cast from the hands of Atargatis and Isis.
Swords from Zela to Alesia
A wolf roars among spaleses and galeas
Marmoreal bane
honored by slain.
Nobility
The garden of hate
Heart of the people
And of their fate
Milestones and legions,
wet by five seas.
Signs in the sky of a tormented peace.
Carved into a man with words of fire:
The empire
Bleeding Human veins cut
by copper asses
Silence becomes violence
White robes dyed red
Piled into the memory’s webs
In the curia
Expires The light of the plebs
Optimates
fear the power
Who takes the heart of the people conquers Rome
The soul of rome
Viscid corruption
Snakes down the arches
A wheel of power
Fueled by darkness
Milestones and legions,
wet by five seas.
Signs in the sky of a tormented peace.
Carved into a man with words of fire:
The empire
