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...
|
Horrors 'neath the pyramid.
|
