Yakuza (ヤクザ, [jaꜜkuza]), also known as gokudō (極道), are members of transnational organized crime syndicates originating in Japan. The Japanese police, and media by request of the police, call them bōryokudan (暴力団, "violent groups"), while the yakuza call themselves "ninkyō dantai" (任侠団体 or 仁侠団体, "chivalrous organizations"). The yakuza are notorious for their strict codes of conduct and organized nature. They have a large presence in the Japanese media and operate internationally with an estimated 102,000 members.
Despite uncertainty about the single origin of yakuza organizations, most modern yakuza derive from two classifications which emerged in the mid-Edo Period (1603–1868): tekiya, those who primarily peddled illicit, stolen or shoddy goods; and bakuto, those who were involved in or participated in gambling.
"Tekiya" (peddlers) were considered one of the lowest social groups in Edo. As they began to form organizations of their own, they took over some administrative duties relating to commerce, such as stall allocation and protection of their commercial activities. During Shinto festivals, these peddlers opened stalls and some members were hired to act as security. Each peddler paid rent in exchange for a stall assignment and protection during the fair.

Genres: ,faces in the mind distort and decay
memory fades so does the fear of it
blank looks stare back just as confused
the enemy on the offensive
so content in your
embedded dream
the vessel only left behind
in these arduous times black market liver for sale
spoils of gluttony yields sores
desperation and a penchant for chaos
blaze a trail to demise
so content in your
embedded dream
the vessel only left behind
so content in your
embedded dream
the vessel only left behind
destroy the heretic
to wake the living dead
kill
so you may live
to see the end of it all
live to work work to live
heads of prophets on display
so beautiful
