The flashing storm front sinks As twin horns split the blackened sky Over the eastern horizon Comes red Aldebaran’s fiery rise Stormbringer A gathering of six A nightscape face built upon myth Stormbringers all Across the seasons in glimmer and mist Islands of light Animate the dark between the stars Deepscapes drift The stars as they are and not as we wish Caelum portentum Ain portentum Hyades portentum Twin horns split the sky Ain portentum Oculus Boreus, the cold winter’s eye Hyades portentum Twin horns split the blackened sky

A skyborne devil - Al Satan Rises in the late heat - de anno Bringing cold down upon the Earth An unstable eye that turns to glare Harbinger Boreas Under Algol Amid flashing showers of dust The radiant and storm bursts forth A dread light of serpentine vision To watch and gloat in the time of dying Sign of woe Al Satan Under Algol The tears of Saint Laurence flash through the night The dust of the heavens disturbed Al Satan strikes fear in human hearts Eclipse in darkness - night after night Demon star The specter's head Under Algol

Nebulous dragons in deepest darkness Amorphic heads glow red like stellar blood Tendril necks contort in fiery opposition Filament limbs - frozen in time Spectral blue haze of irradiated dust Shadows black, voids engulf primordial death Obscurant clouds pierced by starlight flood Elemental struggle, plasma mists as blood Sirian spectrum vapors burn Breaths of burning solar winds Scorching Ara’s edifice to black Battle of eons, both destined for death Dragons of Ara Light divided The dragons tear themselves apart Burning nuclear fury illuminates the void The gods crowd round as flies enthralled A captive swarm cocooned in astral dust Burning clouds evaporate, sublimate remains Myriad suns' coronal winds blast into void Atop the altar, the haze of stellar war glows Sifting the remains for new generations to arise The dragons' spectral war subsides Halo of gods have loosed their grip Clouds of dust adrift In silence, for all time...

Approach the center of dawn Deep in the layers of light Swimming among ancient beasts Abandoned by time Night equal to day And day equal to night Equinox sun the great divider burns the twilight’s void Aequinoctium Cosmic dust swept up into a storm Stabs the twilight to release… To release or kill the light Aequinoctium When men’s folly outnumbers Outnumbers even the stars In the circle of the signs (via Solis) The vast expanse of the skies Given to delusions of man The unrepentant fools Dethroned conceits survive Unseen by the weak minds Aequinoctium Cosmic dust swept up into a storm Stabs the twilight to release… To release or kill the light I bear the scales when hang in equipoise The night and day

Born with Sirius ascendant In effigy or legend be A hatchling now free from the putrid leathery womb Crowned in gold King of the serpents - and all but man Raises its head to greet the blazing Sirian dawn With fatal glance, the regulus with fetid breath Serpentine slit eyes sear through the retreating dark night An earthly cherubim that kills through unholy sight And in death… An ancient alchemical, imperial glow From the serpent’s root Comes forth a beast Venomous cockatrice The Basilisk Flame

i) Serpents of Laocoon Agony in icon without redemption Punishment for wrong and right Struck by fangs as willed by the gods Beauty in desperation, terror, and death Serpents enfold the children of Laocoon Serpentine, envenomed, constriction Severe faces frozen in death Severe faces frozen in time The gods reject the prayers of the priest Tame the rapacious prophets before all die ii) Nyx Velificans Holy Nyx, born of chaos At whose feet all sins are laid Dissolving in a dreamless sleep Eternal mother of death Yes, the gods - the dreams of men Are later than this world The ground littered with carven idols Regolith shroud entombs in time An arrogant king A tyrant he has now become Falls into the hands of death The final conqueror iii) Resacralize When darkness fails to bring forth the stars, resacralize ancient hymns Hoary with the dust of ages Magnificent desolation - stark and barren What ends when symbols shatter? Traditions! Traditions cursed to exile Ancients ways trod underfoot And the eagle Killed by an arrow Vaned... ...by its own feathers vaned! iv) In a Time of Plauge Swords may not fight with fate Strength stoops unto the grave The plague full swift goes by “Come, come!” the bells do cry Tasteth death’s bitterness Hell’s executioner, mount we unto the sky “Come, come, come!” the bells do cry I am sick, I must die “Come, come, come!” the bells do cry I am sick, I must die

Like a wolf on the fold descends the disease Breathe in the heaving tides of corrupted seas Gleaming veiled prophets plead in sickly tone Rocks strewn in bone break waves of parting groans For the Angel of Death spread his wings on the blast And breathed in the face of the foe as he passed And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill And their hearts but once heaved, and forever - forever grew still Like a wolf on the fold A wolf on the fold Wolf on the fold And there lay the tending angels lay broken and pale Sweat from their brows drips in bloody trails And these angels of mercy now weep in despair Powerless to fight a war in the rising infectious air The time of rebirth has crushed the hopes of all men Death rides unhindered through the breath of his sin For the Angel of Death spread his wings on the blast And breathed in the face of the foe as he passed And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill And their hearts but once heaved, and forever - forever grew still And there lay the rider distorted and pale With the dew on his brow, and the rust on his mail And the tents were all silent, the banners alone The lances unlifted, the trumpet unblown For the Angel of Death spread his wings on the blast And breathed in the face of the foe as he passed And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill And their hearts but once heaved, and forever - forever grew still Like a wolf on the fold A wolf on the fold Wolf on the fold
