The prophet of Peace Bury your dreams This offering of Peace Equivalent to suffering Of furthest hope Of furthest reach The prophet of Peace Prophet of progress Cross of conquest Show them, show them, show them where to drop Their faces, their faces, their faces all around Running, running, trudge against the guilt Running, running, proverbial trap REACH Orient the drones Spatio-temporal landmarks Map it out The intimacy & home combat Dance on the parallels Show them, show them, show them where to drop Their faces, their faces, their faces all around Running, running, running to the front line Running, running, proverbial trap REACH Reach, reaching for sanctity Determine orientation, orient the drones Their seeking in heat Show them where to drop, where to kill Heat seeking policing Reach, reach, reaching for sanity Reach, reach, reaching for sanctity Reach, reach, reaching for sanity Running, running, running all around Their faces, their faces, their faces all around Running, reaching, trudging, pulling, running, running…… REACH

Absurd dance Jet through the ruins Clawing at the social fabric Erasing lived experience Future deaths in present Mechanism of debt To military control, occupation, expropriation of the mind Cybernetic control Autonomous appliance Directs the abuse Walking down the street, holding you Wistful in desperate thought Algorithmic chaos The mathmatic control Disperse Reality of design, of designed peace Clear all future Play to the loop of non-existence With hints of the past Grief left on a distant plane To become the superior product Superior producer Rendered ghosts Your own rendering pixelated to dust, dust, dust…..

Tempted the ruins of your mind Fresh in childhood Injecting false hope Raising consciousness Speaking bitterness For a glance at… Peace of mind For a glance at peace of mind Passing by the mirror of hopeful deceit Passing by the mirror of the manifestation of the inner most shame Reach for prowess The backs of the mind To alter the sanctity of birth For their research For your joy For your shot at bliss Sitting idle in the gazebo Spitting shit Collective yearn for self expression Devoid of ideas Pro forma the brotherhood Clumsy torrent of words Linguistic teeth Consciousness raising Speaking bitterness Purge regroup Purge regroup For all the bodies of pain To step outside and feel acidic heat Let them penetrate Fog overtakes Does it go beyond their pleasure? as they penetrate? Sending off signals Instant commodification The closest taste of peace is the death of autonomy Stalk movement in personal delude oneself How to stay forever young, forever children In hot mesh and chains and polish bite Failure of childhood Give the vow, give up the right Movement turns just to symptom The personal peace wins and outweighs Biology a trick to entrap you
4.
Femme is fatal A fatal wound Take on the artifact Drink it’s piss Take up the artifice Transcend to bliss The illustrious cage Pull up the veil Wear the cross around your neck Take the body, reach for it all Heave it to the heavens now Feel its kiss When you’ve taken the whip You end in chains on display Accessory Accessorizing the high order Femme is your fatality Your fatal wound Destined to serve, the spirit reeks Nothing to release Orgasmic glee Destined to serve, the spirit reeks Nothing to release Orgasmic glee Performative grief Destined to serve, the spirit reeks Nothing to release Orgasmic glee What do you see?
5.
All different forms of hell When will you take its form Desire the power to nestle up to it and put it all to sleep Transcend agony Transcend creatively Flash your gun at me Wistfully Two planes collide Galactically Soften me to a burst Flash your gun at me Going out while taking many down Can it smirk? Can I take any power from it? Lifeless but maybe able to transcend Maximum security Paramilitary The spirituality Creating this duality, this reality I want death In the threshold of hell profound darkness of love What can love mean If only meant to control To propel desires into others the deepest care
6.
Take pleasure and take hold Energy to the other Gifts to the order Take pleasure and take hold Take pleasure and take hold What contains you and what destroys you Once it leaves your eyes Takes pleasure to a disguise Mutual aid of discontent Wrapping the body in the hell fire tent Is this what we’re all meant for? Meant to live for fear of embarrassment Scream out to hear Tear yourself down Tear it down Spiritual resignation Ritual Ritualizing Tout what you’ve taken Tour what you’ve learned You’re trapped Proverbial trap Hunger feeds the flight Need to leave the body so bad so urgently 1,000 sufferings for one ounce of joy Only one gets to feel it Die to not borrow Not borrow from waste Ritualizing Ritual Ritualizing Spiritual resignation Spiritual resignation Ritual Ritualizing Take from the movement Make it your comfort Make it your capital Subvert the noise to relatability All for personal peace Spies for Personal Peace Staged distraught, staged happenings The ritual viel Lifted in the happenings Of the spies for Peace
7.
Season with napalm gas Running through the jungle If it comes at their hands It “isn’t violence” The veil so obvious so bittersweet Place in the figurehead Absolve of violent doing Now is treason Everyone around you is the enemy Sift through the gas Coughing spitting up blood When the veil is lifted it’s too late and you are already dead Use the phallus taken to strike Wrung around the neck of the body Gassed Gassed communism Jokes on you Death all around Mine the bodies Baptized and blessed Nothing to criticize The factorial blast Fought for sanctity He and he is risen Ascend the body up Ascending, ascending Bathed in trauma Moist forever Lick the cum It will be done Stroke the cross Staged on earth They used your body to ascend to heaven Hallowed, hallowed Consecrated Consecrated metaphysical space The capital aura Consecrated Consecrated media ground
8.
Desires of Pain Put on their likeness Breathe in the unfamiliar scent Descent into battle Guns over shoulder Running, running, inflatable tanks Presence procured The real pain of guilt cured In the militia, malicious doubt In the militia, malicious doubt Stay in the campaign Eat the rations of clout Taken from their bodies so ravenously Anxiously, you sit, in your own meditation Can’t listen long enough for any kind of liberation Take from their bodies, take from their minds Take from their bodies, take from their minds The hides of violence stored But taken out when their presence pays Put on their likeness Put on the pain Put on their likeness Put on the pain Put on their likeness Put on the pain The desire to suffer With territory to gain Your camouflage gives you away Endure the torture for your troops, for your country Endure the physicality of pain, for the abstract It will make you good It will make you into a bountiful desire A body of desire
9.
Not knowing what it’s like to get old But to open the door to the stranger and find that the stranger did indeed have the knife You can be poisoned By the cyanide in the stone Can’t believe Cannot believe You are going to heaven in your own body The movement is over but you’ve moved into a house of its relics Relish in the danger you’ll never once see Except when it’s staring you back but you are shielded beyond belief Shielded beyond belief Go for the panic Go for the art Go for the metaphor they’ll never be able to see Go for the enlightenment you are entitled to reach Measure the decoy up to your neck Don’t get distracted, stay the focus Unnecessary grab
10.
Deepest dive Deepest thought Deepest transcendence Deepest thought Only to be intercepted Caught by the enemy The possibility of transcendence or spiritual gain? Or connection? Just going to find the veiled Enemy or their own transcendence in space and not something only connected to you? Your own soul? Can you love it? Can you eat it? Can you reproduce it? Spiritual contact Connected to only to the other beings on different planes Ascending, ascending Injecting their control Ascending, ascending Injecting their control No longer able to decipher the ways of pain To force it in So far to be as isolated as possible In the furthest depth, the furthest reach The only way to be outside of it To escape Ascending, ascending Injecting their control Ascending, ascending Injecting their control Let them take the body

Male Kinship 03:31
Male kinship An understanding of our lord Shit Male ambivalence Impressive lick Female carving Carving out a similar theme Impressive niche Depressive itch Gender anxiety over failure of a distance Place in time given by the scientists No ownership over peace of mind Mine of inclusion Intrusive bite You must deliver all for all to know Tasteless might Might suit you better Suit you for soldier Suit you for battle The explosive rattle The minor hits Life begins in the baptismal piss It all adds up It all adds up To a deafening blitz Defining bliss To know power when it graces over the hand But will all suffer? Can this mutation initiate power? Do you have your automatic weapon? The martial contract of science and transcendence You’ll never know it It all adds up Journey of all Journey of old Journey of assault Watch and it will become clear You won’t know who killed you But you’ll have felt their kiss Tongue down your mouth Moisture drips into your intellect Straight mystery It’s painted into the walls Straight to the pathway at least it has a point Little deceit Hounding defeat What is there is to feel Is not smart to be It all adds up Men in the bunkers Controlling the algorithms Perverse Fucking each other Veiled from sin Keeping sanctity If no one can see

Pre-order from Dirt Cult here:

"We are designed and raised to be soldiers, informants, producers, and workers for the state. The foundations of imperialism and conquest, justified by religion, never shaken. The more categorized we are by identity makes it all the much easier for us to be commodified, all culture, ideas and thoughts thrown into countless algorithms flowing on from inside of us and throughout space forever, continuously spiraling as we all are. Just as any of our sacred experiences, of joy and loss, oppression and pain, sexual and gender deviancy, bliss and enlightenment, their tactics are also just as fluid and just as evolving. At this point, every moment has the potential to be capitalized on, or commodified. Every moment offers the potential to distribute data to them that may seem useful. To sell to you, implicate you, or both. Your own likeness captured is just many different algorithmic interpretations of you. We are the ones that they empower to inflict violence upon and implicate one another. The operative lives inside of you and out, never physically feasible but always contains a presence. Relation and even existence without their tools feels impossible. But there are those moments, those sacred moments, that are unique to us that they can never feel. We have to fight the operatives to keep those experiences ours, without giving it to them for their uses. Defining moments of bliss, existing in hope. Stepping outside of the lucid daydream. Watch out for the mystics, inside and out."
