The Orphion Descent

Descend From the bones of the netherworld enlivened Senses are heightened from within Subatomic pathways into the underworld Flame lit matrix All-consuming gateway to chasms beyond Enter into the abyss primordial Descending into obsidian realms Subconscious subterfuge parted like ashen waves Coiling inwards The flame lit the cavern Guiding the way A journey to bring he who treads upon its path Face to face with all that is hiding Into the shadow's crawl My voyage is sown Touching down in the lowest realm of lifeless forms The roots below The surviving will of astral form Lit from within The became inverted from the deeds of one Defaced Now a foul king fed by the bones of his fate Lost in the murky heart long since extinguished The Blade of the Sun sheathed in an amethyst throne Knowledge of the self sits silent for those with ears to hear The light of consciousness begins to appear Peering through prayers of fear Without a pure heart Inverting all into deception Birthing daemons that slither and crawl through their phantom minds Reflections of the trauma unhealed Buried are jewels that lay hidden inside you Lighting the path of the warrior and guiding his way 10,000 hungry ghosts longing to drink from its illumination They became inverted by the deeds of one Defaced Now a foul king fed by the bones of his fate Seeking now the light of Gnosis Closing the chasm of the nihilistic gods This place of wickedness and gloom A labyrinth of coiling walls Now lit by the flaming sword of truth Revealed in the light are legions of cannibals Feeding on the abscesses of fear that fester and malign Insatiable appetite One must conquer their demons with courage A hero dies only once a coward dies a thousand times
