Pretty Gnostic MachineBlood and Honey
Balance hexes air,
Almond lifts desire like smoke -
night drinks the duet.

John Balance was the moth in God's oscilloscope, drunk on voltage and revelation.
He didn't sing, he conducted hauntings.
Blood-scarred hymn from a dying empire -
I return its unholy red to the abyss,
where truth rises like a black sun.

The Angelic Conversation (Derek Jarman, 1985)
Accompanied by #Coil's brooding lust and Judi Dench's solemn recital of 14 of Shakespeare's sonnets, men cross dreamlike landscapes and dark desires.
