--I--
The Ominous deliver us - The Luminous, The Luminous
Scintillance was given us - A light that lives in all of us
Had blinded us - They blinded us!
The specters stole our sight from us!
Overpow’ring opulence - Lit a flame so bright in us
They’ve gotten us, they’ve gotten us
The Luminous have gotten us
--II--
And so they dwell inside of us
Spiritual viruses - Twisted and lascivious
So you did desire us - Lustful thoughts agree with us
Deliciousness, Deliciousness
Appetites carnivorous - Waves of joy wash over us
Please come with us - And live your lust
And come with us - And come with us
And come and see the light with us
--III--
We all one creature once - Flesh composed of brilliance - Owner of existences
Believe in us, Believe in us
You live amongst the marvelous - So you must be part of us
Though our bonds are devious - We create magnificence
Though our bonds are devious - They are fate’s deliverance
Lo! You are oblivious - Sifting through ambivalence - You will find omnipotence
They’ve gotten us, they’ve gotten us - The Ominous had gotten us
To no one they pray, in nothing they trust
Our heavens were grey, our bones made of dust
But night turned to day, and turned into us
The Luminous, The Luminous - Now the light is known to us

I really like to see a new and unusual voice and here's one. I like the quirky internal rhyming. I think this would be terrific in a Poetry Slam situation. It has a driving quality. I'm not sure where it's taking me but I love the journey.
