The Icon of Fertility
Appears majestically before us
It rises above all finite,
Decaying, crumbling, dying life
The Black Goat with a Thousand Young,
An avatar of a formless cloud of creation
Cosmic matter, exotic energy
Self-organizing signatures initiate
On one side of mirror-truth
Stands the Ram of Masculine Strength
Beyond your sight in the ether,
The Procreation Principle of Feminine Wrath
Her cilia reach into this world
And her representative is, to us,
A beast of religious persecution,
Drawing in those strange enough to be her mates
Scattering seeds of alien substance,
A force that shapes all that's near
Distorted to take on other forms:
Properties visible in other dimensions
The ram impregnates its offering,
And, in so doing, triggers an opposite
For the offspring will cross the threshold
And be birthed from the misery fog
Spawning the spores of malediction

A superimposed image of reality
Fades as we exhume the mirage
And the beast from the cosmic void
Speaks like us, looks like us
He demonstrates his power
And sours dreams in his wake
To challenge him is to bring
Devastation upon us all
Behold!
Hail!
We are the insects of the cosmos,
On a tiny rock in the ether
We are the grains of sand
From which this temple is built

The Whippoorwills

Set the scene with a bleeding
Exalt the beast that we're feeding
It appears from her portal
As you feared, now immortal
The simple face will cry
The monstrous body grinds
Through the human hives
But your eyes are blind
As it grows it will hunger
We shall know, announced with thunder
Looks like the mother
But is the father's son
We can't release it
Until our work is done
The simple face will cry
And blood will rise like tide
And after you have died
The whippoorwills will fly

Fathomless Sorrow
05:43
|

|
All severing
All withering
All suffering
Dire misery
Wallow in horror
Flinching in fear
Fathomless sorrow
Terrified
Drown in fear

The Window

The house was old, with tangled wings outthrown,
Of which no one could ever half keep track,
And in a small room somewhat near the back
Was an odd window sealed with ancient stone.
There, in a dream-plagued childhood, quite alone
I used to go, where night reigned vague and black;
Parting the cobwebs with a curious lack
Of fear, and with a wonder each time grown.
One later day I brought the masons there
To find what view my dim forbears had shunned,
But as they pierced the stone, a rush of air
Burst from the alien voids that yawned beyond.
They fled—but I peered through and found unrolled
All the wild worlds of which my dreams had told.

You cannot run from me
Subhuman, vermin, gutter trash
Fucking useless mortal waste
This is what you deserve!
I'm going to hunt you down,
Back you into a corner
In this dilapidated house,
Surrounded by demonic spirits
Running as fast as you can
Your speed will not avail you
Looking you in the eye,
Stabbing you in the fucking gut
Your pleas don't move me
My hatred will not relent
Begging for your life
Forces me to cut out your tongue

Y'ha-nthlei awaits me
Come now to these shores
I shall give thee a body,
Thou will shape my flesh
I shall give thee blood,
And thou will transform mine
Ia-R'lyehl Cihuiha
Flgagnl id Ia!
Y'ha-nthlei awaits me
In the depths of the sea
Take me home
Y'ha-nthlei
Y'ha-nthlei
Of the deeps
