Sinew of Sol
10:28

To go where no grass may grow
On the peak where serpents blood was spilled
The place which the sun's rays cannot beam
And roots sleep dreamlessly beneath
A realm of decay wrought of life
The sinew of Sol awaits the knife
To ascend the valley by golden bough
A lone limb reaching to the depth extends
As tooth and claw sharpen in strength
And verdant growth follows long slumber
A realm of life wrought from loss
The sinew of Sol found in moss
A realm of dream wrought in turmoil
The sinew of Sol rising from the soil
A memory embedded in the flesh of mind
Cernunnos beckons from behind his flame
The gathering ghosts of this night rejoice
In the fauna of opportunity imbibed

A fading sepulchral vestige
Once thought indelible wears away
Withered by time in lament and remorse
A ruined beacon on a lost horizon
Entropy now encircles the wanderer
Whipped by icy winds of decay
The pool of souls opens up
And a thousand hands ensnare
From forgotten alcoves and crevices
Embossed with eternal dust and ash
Beckoning cries call out
To join in rank and file
Corrupting life and light
Organic composition atrophies
He clutches the remnants in vain
As his essence returns to aether
Now part of the webbed All
Self dissolves, nothing remains...

Coiled Within the Earth
06:53
|

Blade imbued with will sent into the flame
To rest and gather of its warmth
The knowledge of pain then sears flesh
Sinking yet seeking
Rising and retreating
A serpent thought dead and maimed
For consoling those bitten
Holds burden and woe in itself
In calm and peaceful water
Under a waning reflection of the moon
A yearning which bears discomfort
Yet a sought after sorrow
In the center of the hewn passage
Solace glimmers from loss
The flame of hearth has stopped
Silenced as if with split tongue
And the baying of the world grows louder
Coiled in sacred earth to heal

Faustian Path
05:59
|
|||
This hardened heart which may not repent
Whose tethers are strung and bound
The welkin mourns its wilted grey weep
The fruits of lunacy laid out to keep
Bid to do what thou wilt
On earthly plane, void of empyreal
By the grace of tree of Hecat
And sapphire flame of Pluto
I flew with demonspeed
And rode on devil's wings
To storms on distant shores
And villages of yesteryear
Through mountains white
And forests deep
Through dens of lechery
And troughs endless
To be discarded
Among the obscure
A world of hollow gazes
In needs unmet
And unknown
This spiritually vacuous void
We inhabit in enslavement
Can be shed at a cost
If taking the Faustian Path
Hark! The choice is made
By writ of eternal order
Your blood-sealed covenant
Will not be undone
