College Era Part 2 (Ha Satan and Hentai)

Ha Satan


Wandering to and fro upon
the earth, seeking what may be found
A vagrant strider, returning
not to home, but to place of rest

Inquiry made, “Where have you been?”
Answering, recounting my past
Deeds, my travels, my observance
Of the ways of the earth, of ‘man’

A proud boast is made, “Look at him
the best of my loyal servants”
Pointing down, not to one of us
or to itself, great as they are

But to a lowly creation
Incarnated and praising it
“Perhaps he will abandon you
if you take back what is given”

They respond and accept with pride
They give me almost full rein to
test and accuse the servant’s faults
And my challenge begins with “death”

But the answers are those of a
true follower, the cult of the
Ineffable One, charisma
and power that it seems to have

And so the challenge was not so
Merely a demonstration of
how pathetically weak and sad
all their loyal servants can be

Hentai


Perverse, disgusting, ill minded
Ignoble, impious, the damned
Demonic, corrupted in morals
Following pleasures where they lead

Groping blindly to the unseen
Touching what should not be found
Secrets uncovered, made public
Releasing what is to be imprisoned

Why must you look where you shouldn’t?
Why can you not stay safe?
Secure in blissful ignorance
Fear and shun the curse of inquiry
