ARCHITECTURE of SILENCE II

(Prompt: INTRO - FEEDBACK SWELL INTO SLOW HEAVY DRUM MARCH. HIGH GAIN GUITAR FEEDBACK SOUND LIKE A SCREAM)

Prompt VERSE 1 - Guttural Vocals

They say I’m full of secrets,

As if secrets were made of wings

That squirm like angry maggots.

Crashing into fire-red curtains,

Prompt PRE-CHORUS - DECREASING TEMPO

Barricade of velvet

Caging only the guilty

To the sound of backward speech.

Prompt PRE-CHORUS - Increasing Tempo

Listen for the screams,

The gasp when no one breathes.

Smoke curls in musty chevron ribbons

Hovers over squares of black and white.

The room grows small...

the room grows...

Prompt SHOUTED

THEY. HAVE. NO. IDEA!

Flames lick high and steady!

A small ignited torture!

Tilting on an axis of despair!

Embers escape the room where chairs hang upside-down!

Where gravity delivers...

the sound of its own demise!

Prompt VERSE 2 - Fast, Dissonant Tremolo Picking

Shadows bend backward, severed from the body.

Shards of fractured truth wrapped in plastic.

I fold light into origami cranes,

Edges tucked into the clamp of journal pages.

Those words I burned for heat—

Prompt GROWL

EATEN BY THE TEETH OF FIRE.!

Prompt: BRIDGE - SLUDGE/DOOM TEMPO, SLOW & HEAVY

The flame,

it does not hurry.

It hears the architecture of silence.

Night inhales gulps of splintered wood...

A taste like copper pennies under the tongue of a corpse.

(Guitar solo: Piercing, discordant, chaotic)

Prompt: BUILD-UP - LOW WHISPER INTO A ROAR

I am the whispered concoction—

The Prom King of Smoke and Dreams!

Something sits with spindled legs...

Backlit by its own tortured screams!

Counting heartbeats like hell-bound stars!

Prompt: CLIMAX - FULL SONIC ASSAULT

They say I’m full of secrets!

They have no idea!

I am the secret, a silence that spits release!

A fire that dared to dream of ice!

Prompt: SCREAMED

UNTIL I SWALLOW THE DARKNESS!
