Breaking the World

From the Author: My second attempt at poetry. I have no idea what's wrong with me. This poem was inspired by listening to Breaking the World by Girugamesh.

Disclaimer: I don't own Shaman King.


I tower upon the world
Solemn
Righteous
Magnificent
Glorious
Huge
Gigantic
Titanic
Invincible
Indestructible
Untouchable
Perfect
Consummate
Angelic
Seraphic
Divine.

The ultimate entity of the Universe.
The beginning and the end.
Power and Knowledge.
Divine Judgment.
Order.
Good.
I am All.

Crowned with bays,
Wrapped in velvet violet.
I bear the symbols of sovereignty of the world.
Existence bow downs before me.

I am Asakura Hao.

I am God.

...

And then the World broke down
Beneath my feet.

...

Water
Fire
Storm
Wind
Earth
Nature
Body and Soul
Beast and Human
Heaven and Hell

All rise up against me.

And they

Yell
Scream
Shout
Holler
Roar
Rage
Punch
Kick
Claw
Cut
Slash
Hack
Chop
Cleave
Wilt
Dig
Drill
Undermine
Shoot
Burn
Demolish
Barrage
Bombard
Ravage
Destroy
Annihilate

Hundreds
Thousands
Millions

Of steel ropes fly around

My neck,
My hands,
My legs,
My waist,

Pulling me down.

Bringing me down
To the ground.

Tearing my skin, flesh, bones,
My crown set in flames
My mantle in tatters
My wings ripped from my body
My throne blown to pieces
My pride pounded to dust

...

I was

Dethroned
Shackled
Enslaved
Branded
Cursed
Banished.

You sent me to hell
To burn for feats
You misread as sins.
I brought you life and light
And you sent me to death and dark

Sentenced to anguish
You want me vanquished,
By your filthy fist squashed,
My soul squelched,
My tongue wrung out
To silence my protests,
My hands snapped in two
To prevent my resistance,
My feet chopped off
To prevent my flight.

Impaled

Crucified

Like that Son
of that God you betrayed,
Who died for you

But you spat in his face.

Feed me salt
Wine me vinegar

You scum!

Your sneer
Is the mirror that unveils your abomination

Your incomprehension
Is the marker of your ignorance and narrowness

Your fear
Is the fiend which I will be reborn into

...

I am Asakura Hao.

I am the Devil.
