Primordial building blocks Contains both mater and energy Cosmological linear line Past lives extended, etched in time Heritage denomination A common trait for universal fate Forever expanding Propagating from a singularity Reborn, rejuvenated with life And purpose upon my death Absorbed into the fiber Attaching memories To merge into our own Savage grotesque consumption Meandering on the insane The uncontrollable lust to survive Digesting to separate Internally gestating whole Vivid memories contained Entwined in the fabric of life Gormandizing the flesh Flooding dreams of another time flash inside Astronomical energy Subconsciously growing and expanding Concentric field identified The event horizon expands but hides Past lessons left unlearned Discarded as dogmas and delusions Will the erudite succumb To the trammels of submission What should we derive? Balance is redefined Blindly we toil Ignoring our own insignificance

preserving ancient objects underground, unsung creatures ecosystem dependent, accumulating change, effects unnoticed a hideous mass of mortality becomes a child of the dust ...doomed to perdition amidst mouldering leaves, conduct this pious spectacle that which dreameth not, scattered about it's earthly couch bed-fellow of the worm sleepeth beneath the sod gnawn by the cankering throngs their untold millions flit beneath the moon clenching the jaws of the grave obscured by the dunnest shades of life malignant, and cleansing, harmonious verdant decay her minions move as one, in the shadows blindly gorging on flesh and marrow doomed to perdition... a hideous mass of mortality becomes a child of the dust

a hidden hand tugs at the strings the ignorant gall the effrontery of it all such philistines wont be admired through fortitude we cleanse the mires dull light streams through the hazy scene dims the procession the mood serene the dead retain their perfection unlike the living a foreboding wrath makes dim with woe the auspicious nature... of this age oracle speaks the call from beyond shimmering linens, vespers foregone vaporous wisps blow, through a cuprous haze unctuous below, preternatural remains accomplished profligates, amiable infidels instilling a bellicose state of misath- ropical tyranny fulfilling the propheciesed conspira- torical decievery dull light streams through the hazy scene dims the procession the mood serene... oh the reeling world vaporous wisps blow, through a cuprous haze unctuous below, preternatural remains

Acquiesce to the overmaster, sapping initiative Caring naught for the wails of the agonized Congenital enfeeblement for the mangled dying and swollen dead From which every dogma became materialized Secret teachings, chicanery, life precedes form The eternal first cause is latent in spirit And matter from the beginning creative energy No deification Higher than prodigious truth To defy it would be to Degrade its energy Thus the great cosmogony Undermine the philistines To restore to entropy Self existence, tribulation Manifested, promulgation No deification Higher than prodigious truth To defy it would be to Degrade its energy Thus the great cosmogony Undermine the philistines To restore to entropy The secret doctrine, eternal verities Archaic teachings, of a sectarian From which every dogma became materialized Secret teachings, chicanery, life precedes form The eternal first cause is latent in spirit And matter from the beginning creative energy

Unperceived by the host Ecosystem affluent, perforate Dead, decaying, organic Embryonic fluid, Festers Beneath the skin Burrowing, flesh cavity Pathobiont Deformity Subsidiary tissue, the local infection has spread Impregnating cells, Manipulation apex is reached Larva, spawn, metamorphosis Colonizing to the fibers Subsidiary tissue, the local infection has spread Impregnating cells, Manipulation apex is reached Domicile, terrain, squandered Coagulation atrophy Subsidiary tissue, the local infection has spread Impregnating cells, Manipulation Reached Pathobiont Deformity Global control, attacking and secreting Surface rotting, infection dwells submerged Depravity near the end Incubation exhausted, secretion Flowing, rotten, flesh Pungent stale aroma, Precedes Untimely death Coalescing ends abruptly Pathobiont Deformity Host is left a rotting shell Nesting propagation Continuing the flow once more To future generations

Auto-Icon 04:23
Posthumous protest preserved by posterity Posthumous protest preserved, an auto-icon Discarding this infected life with ease a lifeless corpse Rank in the liquid of decomposition Attains the abdicated throne Appallingly transformed Enigmatical look Formidable radiance Pernicious power, of his eye What Prometheus do we free? Obviating the fear of mortality Life stultified through obscenities Under the heavy sway of death Appallingly transformed Enigmatical look Formidable radiance Pernicious power, of his Sarcophagus, displaying a deep cadaverous blueness Death does not kill, to struggle in life is to enforce its will Incomprehensible anomalies Ever accursed, amounting to idolatry With telescopic scrutiny No expostulation, no repudiation Appallingly transformed Enigmatical look Formidable radiance Pernicious power, of his eye What Prometheus do we free? Obviating the fear of mortality Life stultified through obscenities Under the heavy sway of death Appallingly transformed Enigmatical look Formidable radiance Pernicious power, of his eye This tragic muse in banality So humbly enthroned postmortem To benefit posterity A posthumous protest preserved Posthumous protest preserved by posterity Posthumous protest preserved, an auto-icon
