UNENLIGHTENED BEASTS A demonic moratorium no consensus reached On festering sins pieced together from broken oaths Shall I compare thee to a dance of the damned As the winged holies now crave earthly lust? Arriving dementia of ecstasy delayed Acerbic sermons alluding post-rapture Eucharistic perversion my bleak domain So would you place your bets in life again? Hark and the fallen rings, profaned benediction As fires in the sky cast artful bewitchment Take out the Tarot and see what rises A man of the cloth or Satyriasis? Unenlightened beasts we are since eons foretold Inverted Tree of Life feigned Sephirothic bliss A billowing locust gained of kings dethroned Now break the seventh seal to heed the call! Unenlightened beasts we are, dominions ashen charred Upon this Tree of Knowledge, come feel my sordid high Sick dogmas pilloried, foul seeded gods enthroned Come break the seventh seal for the end is nigh!

TWILIGHT OF RELIGION Seething mass of angry souls they come with torches lit Tired, tortured and fed with lies they stand bereft of praises Pristine halls bedecked with pews they’d soon be set ablaze Pedophiles—these men of cloth—it’s too late to repent! Profanities in unison, the Son of God is lit Treasured tithe box overturned, the pulpit drowns in flames Here be singeing merriment…to sate all moldering faiths! Taking back what’s theirs, the brainwashed since enlightened The kiss of papacy, the piss stained Holy Scriptures No statues left intact, all winged lies dispensed The tears the moans the fondling—no priestly eyes ungouged! Stepping on charred crucifix, so where’s your savior now? Burning lusts found marbled eyes, of innocence and orgies Morbid pleas of mercy, enraptured third-degree burns Come taste the flaming pools of blood—pathetic blackened organs!
3.
HELL ON EARTH Scribble me some blackened grin Forced denouncements from the sad For I am hubris indisposed Welted stigmatized but still no hope Come and bear the cross of festered limbs Profane all the relics on a whim Trinity stupidity humanity Buried in the sea of cess and filth Here be lies come screeching dead I was there when your god he bled Fallacy on desert fleas Forced conversion or blood red glee! Now it’s time to reap the sown Virtual filth, your science—you’re owned Money, politics and freedom rights Puerile deities for hell on earth Be your own god from downloaded knowledge Breeding fools of trends and delusion Satanic cattle consenting slaughter Shunning faith for hell is here and now! Can’t you see the universe is laughing at you? No one dies for your damned sins so shove it And go kill yourselves!

DESCENT INTO MADNESS Astride through time and space I sigh a lengthening shadow Forthwith forfeit dead notions obliged I dance to rapt catharsis So sprightly cadenza my cantabile a descent into madness rapt For dark lights aglow affirming delights I dubbed me chaos enshrined! So ought it to be I’ve failed on purpose to be the guiding light But what due shadows unholy trysts have to pay behind the veil? So take me for Hemlocks my Belladonna to greet the unsung kind For we are the mad the maddening still, eternally post-denial! A-sputtered futility corrupting martyrs may I be the Second Becoming? Forayed sashayed I deemed much blood so putrid since dried on walls A search for solace unsanctioned abolished who says you can’t be God? For here be grief so bleak in brief my hero my darkened halls In trance portrayed gone dark and dazed in search for another soul As time well spent in shadows fleshed a kiss envenomed Asphodel For me in glee found sordid rhymes now place me in hell ecstatic breaths Thus with this we now part our ways, mere beings untouched by death

CANTO DIABLO 3 - PLAGUED BY THE FUTURE Fourteen days till death, all hope and dreams now dust! They think they’re done with it, vestige of the Dark Age… But humanity will never learn, and maybe never will? So bask now in the glow, of your long desired destruction! Do you like the way things look, everyone’s hard at breathing? Animals in the land of plenty, the mindless kept being mindless Suppressed yet simmering rage, it’s time to thin the heard Seven billion wasteful nothing—this virus must be purged! I’ve seen the past the wretched, all births since led to death Some should not have been born, the rightful cruelly silenced Come Aryan Masters, One Nation swine, come praise the All-Seeing Eye Dumb forefathers condemned descendants, sweet pest infested west! What price the coming days, plagued by the future gone? Will you see but dawning gold, or lungs since turned to stone? Will you breathe in gratitude, or nasopharyngeal slime? Alas I couldn’t care less, for humanity’s out of time!

CANTO DIABLO 4 - BALLAD FOR SATAN I see it on their faces how they feigned indifference How it shows through those yellow slit eyes Of burgeoning sufferance yet still they repeat All those thing they're taught to do since birth! They came via a nexus of any two points A sordid sport begetting but the void A sorrowful fate but still they kept trying A sorry existence bereft of good ending They conspire on things beyond human eyes How every precious seconds they're wont to Detouring, leading mankind further astray By whatever means--leaving none untried Perpetually redefining diligence and hard work Bordering on maddened despair! Though hope and Blessings were never there but that didn't stop them Of dichotomy and opposites found in grief Keep on trying my friends, for soon you will sigh Keep on trying my friends, for soon you will cry Keep on trying my friends, for soon you will fry Keep on trying my friends, for soon you will die

EX LUCIS TENEBRIS "Ex lucis tenebris" for darkness came from light And I’m horny for the night Grabbed hold accursed blades I offer sacrifice To unleash thy darkened might! Glean these shiny eyes midwinter menace nigh Blessed horns come fiery bright Strapped and armored there is nothing left to fear Gone asundered angels seared! I of forever for they came not heaven sent Truth released envenomed spent Riding terror hooved and neighing rancid sulfur The Second Coming since foreclosed! "Ex lucis tenebris" so how much did you pay To but serve misguiding light? Forced upon reverence to give but not receive Pleasing violence craving Gods!
8.
NIGHT HUNT OF THE UNSEELIE Just at the mirth and the midnight hour the faerie folk did ride Amidst the sweetest maddening tunes… From ancient gods replaced and shunned to nature spirits found Benighted beings they roam till dawn! Would you dare to walk the night to see the gleaming orbs? Fancy beings or hellish fiends they both but looked the same Come the Seelie sweetest folks the carefree spirit kin Hark Unseelie the tyrant ones humanity they loathe There were times when they but dwelled on land Then the humans drove them underground Some made homes in kingly tombs of old Others made it cozy with the common folk Though these two be same but mingled not One is careless while the other is violent Stealing babies leaving vile changelings Once they got you forever theirs! Don’t overturn old standing stones Stay away from twisted trees Do not follow flitting lights Ignore the voices after dark! For ye Unseelie I bothered naught So harm me not away with thee! I crave not shiny piles of gold Nor I would fancy serving thee!
9.
DIRGE OF THE ETERNAL WINTER The cold, I never should have left the cold! Dark dominions under frost, all hope is lost ‘Tis a better place there for me the seer The one who sees evil in humanity! I long for the twilight freeze, snowflakes gleam The northern lights, a play of cosmic mirth The crispy air around, bereft of urban sounds My crystal castle fair, dark towers bleakly glare! Nothing could have found me glad or better Amongst the weakly arrogant hypocrites The kind that changes face at a whim No truth no trust no faith none sacred! The choice is made, no bridges unburned! I shall leave humanity in cold dark death And no more sunshine to greet their days As I utter these spells of ancient dark magick…
