The snake is here The abandoned inmost catching the rat Focusing on death astray The silver-crossed chariot Winding through unlimited sciences The star is here Blinding dogmas of worlds in worlds below Sky clears and vanishes hope and desperation The star is here Speaking in triads There is no beyond No demigod but man No pantheon of wisdom When the bleakstar conducts It will eat your heart Scourish warm unmistakable unclean This is not a place for you This is not a race you're part of This is not for you The listener is you Snakes embraces star Enchained in distant chaos Until the light catches us Until the bearer reigns the beast [Dedicated to Louis Cyphre]
