Frozen Zero

Copyright © by Fred Mitchell, 17 Dec 1992

In those lost times so low

    did I fall down

      to lose all that has been lost

        upon a breeze of frosty wind.

As I sink even lower and lower into the quagmire

    time flies

      time flies

        time flies so fast.

Can I see the way lost to all control

    Can I see the future of tomorrow's hold

      Can the acid rains burn so fast

        to wither away an otherwise solid mass?

I am down

    The System's lost on a wind

      a breeze

        a puff of frost

          all gone now...

Cold am I

    Frigid Zero and lie

      in the yowl of sliver of time
      spiraling out of control my mind
      slipping away from behind
      lost to all Mankind.

Cold, the snow

    frost as we go

      vivifying thoughts of ancient and old

        biding time in the deep of the cold

Tomorrow, the ancient winds so vast

    will cover my head to the last

      thought to me mentioned is cast

        in the eldritch indifference of the Past.

Lie here, do I wake
Sear here, do I quake

    as I sink into the surly impugned lake
    slithering like an ungainly snake
    no longer thoughts to placate...



In the early morning sun, I dine as if I were one, In the calm cool afterbreeze of the flush of nine-hundred million seas. I lie awashed in ashes of the past lost lives so vast did the ancient shadows cast a doubt upon the task. I withered in anguish so void upon my own spittle so cloyed with my emotions they toyed to rip out the Soul I enjoyed. I falter, I flounder upon the ground so encrusted with the sound of my screams so profound that many a ear turn astound. My Soul lay in ribbons of flesh the brain quite a mess nowhere did I confess the loss of the eldritch test. I failed, I have fallen, I have drowned.


Why did I die, I wonder

    where did I go?

Why did I cry, I thunder

    what do I know?

Shall I survive the Onslaught of blood?
Shall I die again in the mud?

    Face awashed with the red cream
    Where escape is but a Dream.
