|
I hearken to the grisly murmer of nameless fiends, |
|
Black jaws drooling blasphemy, |
|
Beyond the witch-song, darkly sweet, |
|
The wyrm-horn sounds cross |
|
Dagon's mere, |
|
Shadow-gate (portal to the Black Pyramid) yawns wide, beckoning... |
|
Spells scrawled in blood and frosty rime, |
|
Squamous god encoils the onyx shrine,(by the bleeding stone) |
|
I am enraptured by ophidian eyes. |
|
Pungent odour of engorged flesh, |
|
Vaults of eon-veiled horror, |
|
Embraced by delerium, witches' balms anoint me. |
|
Veils of frost entwine me in the haze of baleful moon-cursed dreams, |
|
I hear the |
|
High Ones whispering ancient spells in the long-dead tongues, |
|
There is the gleam of blackened steel in the flickering torchlight, |
|
And I embrace the balm of sublime forgetfulness... |
|
By the blaze of the burning skulls, |
|
Beneath the |
|
Well of the |
|
Black Flame, |
|
In the vaults of the dreaming gods, |
|
Shackled to the slime-smeared bleeding stone. |
|
Squamous orbs, black sword, drink deep, blood oath. |
|
Supine shapes dancing in the mist,(Serpent-tongued) priestess bares her pale flesh, |
|
Shadows crawl to the sundered stones, |
|
The Eternal |
|
Fiends exult in rapture. |
|
Tomb-worms bloat on carnal blood, |
|
Trickling onto wraith-carved stone, |
|
Dark laughter echoes through the vaults, |
|
Black-winged, cruel as envenomed steel. |
|
In the Well of |
|
Black Flame, squamous shapes writhe, |
|
A dark tide of shadows follows me, |
|
Ravening fiends unleashed to feed, |
|
Incantations pour in torrents from my lips... |
|
Wraiths and fiends whirl to my bidding... |
