Dig deep down inside meDown beneath my searing fleshTell me what you findBut please do not make a mess Reach for marrow and bones dissolvedDisgust at the sight of jelly limbsRear back in fright and look appalledAs unleashed, is everything inside so grim The Ferryman escapes to capture mindsDrag them down to their eternal demiseTry to outwit him and he shall leaveYour soul upon Earth for eternityTo fester and stumble this way and thatSo which is better... Hollow or Intact? Attempt to fight him and learn his rageHe'll slice your cheeks and keep fingers as gameProbably soon your soul will be cagedForever in purgatory without aim.     Written December 4, 2007
