Am I dreaming?
Or is this a waking nightmare?
Am I alive?
Or is this a brutal hallucination?
O Mystery!
Babylon the Great;
Mother of Whores and Prostitutes
Abominations of the Earth!
Sweet Mother of Beasts; Give me Strength!
An attack on your foul kingdom has begun
The Beasts of Land and Sea are gone,
Yet only I remain
The one who sits upon a white horse is nigh
and the Lake of Fire awaits
O Mother of Harlots!
Take me back to your suckling womb
Thou mother of my Mortal par
With Cruelty didst mould my Heart
And with false, self-deceiving tears,
Didst bind my Nostrils, Eyes, and Ears
Didst close my Tongue in senseless clay
And me to mortal life betray
The Death of Jesus set me free
Then what have I to do with thee?

A life unwrit, a shallow hell
Let the blood out
Start the Sacrament
End this Unreal Existence
An arena of yellow eyes
Watched the Changing shape He cut
Saw hoof harden from foot, saw sprout
goat-horns; marked how God rose
and galloped woodward in that guise
And like a dying lady, lean and pale
Who totters forth, wrapped in gauzy veils
Out of her chamber, led by the insane
And feeble wanderings of her fading brain
The moon arose up in the Murky East,
A white and shapeless mass

Cruelty has a Human Heart
And Jealousy a Human Face
Terror the Human Form Divine
And Secrecy, the Human Dress
The Human Dress, is forged Iron
The Human Form, a fiery Forge.
The Human Face, a Furnace seal'd
The Human Heart, its hungry Gorge.
- William Blake "A Divine Image"
