Furnace of Fame
Gather round my sacred friends Let’s all turn up the heat It’s time for those who sold their souls For their end at last to meet For each that reach fortune and fame They all have made the deal And all will enter through Hell's gate To face with their debts ordeal Every passed soul will gather round For my entertainments delight To watch dead heroes meet with flames Screaming out into the night Their plastic faces will melt away Revealing scar filled tortured bone Though once perfect selfish pretties Like their hearts now cold as stone So enjoy your time of fortune The decadence of your fame For soon enough you’ll meet with me And my Furnace of flame If you enjoyed this poem and would like to read more of my work I currently have two books available that can be obtained through the links below.
