[Intent]
[I]
I rip through the chains of Mars
astride his mare and roan
(as) war bellows blazing free
[II]
that rock,
that vicar
and that flower
today I'll put them to sleep
[III]
Your wings have risen up against my foes
and Your winds blow into my sail
and set me upon this path of burning thorns
that bends as the Devil's tail
[IV]
open heart
closed eyes
trembling hands tear apart the chain
[V]
what saint's decree
can hold me back
now that Your name is known to me?
[VI]
"for Your chants to reverb on the walls of my mind,
their truth diligently unfurled,
for the Living d**h in grotesque glory to walk,
from my dreams into the world"
[Preparation]
[I]
a bony hand
upon my shoulder
leads me from day into night
[II]
and from the void
into the air
I follow you sleepily
[III]
from the air
to the sea
I follow you uncertainly
[IV]
from the sea
to the earth
I follow you determinately
[V]
through the earth
into the fire
I follow you confidently
[VI]
from the fire
into the void
I follow you eternally
[VII]
within the godhead
within the abyss
and from on high
I reach down into the world
[Transcritical Bifurcation]
[I]
I am thrust
through the air,
particle swarm,
gaining speed,
friction builds
I am perceived,
I go where gravity wills
[II]
The sky it yields
before my fall,
an empty husk,
I am fulfilled,
and filled with rain
a falling moon
I neither wax nor wane
[III]
as fiery birds
crumble and die
in the wake of wings,
scorching aether,
I come along
I land in salt
(to be) neither psalm nor song
[IV]
at grotesque speed
I break the gla**
I am moved through,
soul torn apart,
blackthorn wreath
lungs fill with brine
as I slowly slip beneath
[V]
a deep blue glow
of endless chance
sends up its hands,
grasping claws,
tendrils bore
into my skin
(and) replace what was before
[VI]
I am rea**embled
through witching love
sirens call
and pa** me by,
my ears burst
with the force of d**h
that stills my endless thirst
[VII]
it seems as though
the open sea,
endless void,
pregnant with rage,
impedes my birth
forever lost
I set my nails into earth
[VIII]
as I writhe
over scaly stone
coral of blood,
exquisite pain,
there's not a sound
awake I dream
that I'm absorbed in ground
[IX]
I become aware
of intense force
choking my lungs,
halting my pulse,
drowning in mire
I pa**, like night,
from soil into fire
[X]
I grasp and reach
for nothingness
a final d**h,
so loved not mourned,
a final test
a break of laws
at His enduring behest
[XI]
chaotic swirl
of ravenous flame
nuclear decay,
dead atom-sphere,
unleash hell
and from this point
time has nothing to tell
[XII]
among melting stone
my skin retreats
magnesium bites,
white storm of teeth,
into my soul
carbon to ash
I am swallowed hole
[XIII]
I fall into
the spaceless space
the timeless time
the endless end
neither here nor there
above or below
into the night I go
