HOUSE OF COUNTS
Who can remember the last full moon of Autumn
within an abysmal chasm of hellbound hearts
reviled by the empty orbs staring from the dead man's noose
lost betwixt the embrace of two lovers' suicide vows?
Wrought iron gates of godless hate
Strum and drang twined claw and fang
This house of Counts renounce the Faith
Wisps of crimson Jezebel
From this world to Hell
Goddamn the hand that feeds
These ghosts never fade
Like the last days of fateful Pompeii
The sort extorts the lowliest fix
Those dreadful downfalls ...

THE LEVIATHAN CONFIGURATION
I find myself within this infernal labyrinth
With the lamenting crux grasped in my hands
I have tasted the sins of the flesh
And stained your memories with my will
Buried hopes and dreams within the confines of nightmares
Familial blood tattoos these killing fists
Because my eternal endeavors
Have led me to a Hell that I call Home
I will save my breath
For screaming
This configuration Of desecration
Has given me insight
Of salvation
And ultimate damnation
The box has tasted blood

IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS
"A reality is just what we tell each other it is. Sane and insane could easily switch places, if the insane were to become the majority. You would find yourself locked in a padded cell, wondering what happened to the world."
The elder one is calling
whispering
SCREAMING
not dead
BUT DREAMING
Do you dare speak His name
scribbling
CARVING
his name
ENGRAVING
Nightmares, awake and breathing new life
Right here and now at the shrine of night
Far reaching, no meaning
Other than to devour all...

MOMMY DEAREST
Hold me close the weather is cold
The fire died so long ago
Mama, at least you're here with me
And quiet the voices below
Is there a world there at all?
Together we can both fall
Lay me down to sleep and tell me good night
And protect me from all the ghosts and wights
We're in this together
And trapped in this fever
Blurring all the lines between wrong and right - WRONG AND RIGHT
Down at our cabin in the woods
Closet of skeletons, feral
Marked with the madness that they claim
Winter kingdom, sing me carols...
The fire died so long ago
Mama, at least you're here with me

Is there a world there at all?
Together we can both fall

And protect me from all the ghosts and wights
We're in this together
And trapped in this fever
Blurring all the lines between wrong and right - WRONG AND RIGHT
Down at our cabin in the woods
Closet of skeletons, feral
Marked with the madness that they claim
Winter kingdom, sing me carols...

HEART SO BLACK
The moon, she hangs over Haddonfield
On this night of revel, eventual horror
Children disguised laughing and screaming
Because the Boogeyman is here at last
RUN - there's nowhere to hide
Murder in a heart so black
CRY - there's no one who cares
Murder in a heart so black
And the silence is deafening
All your suffering will not be in vain
And the violence is pretending
To be heartfelt when I sever your veins
Jack-o'-lantern grins and skeletons
Galore celebrate the becoming of the slain
Babysitters and party...
On this night of revel, eventual horror
Children disguised laughing and screaming
Because the Boogeyman is here at last
RUN - there's nowhere to hide
Murder in a heart so black
CRY - there's no one who cares
Murder in a heart so black
And the silence is deafening
All your suffering will not be in vain
And the violence is pretending

AMARYLLIS ARMAGEDDON
How do I heal this dying flesh?
shaking the chains, a slave to time
Is there another part of me?
a ancient curse slumbers inside
Be my only damnation
Amaryllis Armageddon
Is killing all salvation
Be my only damnation
Amaryllis Armageddon
The falling of creation
When does dawn break for the abyss?
the bleak emptiness within me
How does the monster still hunger?
because there's only agony
Be my only damnation
Amaryllis Armageddon
Is killing all salvation
Be my only damnation
Amaryllis...
shaking the chains, a slave to time
Is there another part of me?
a ancient curse slumbers inside
Be my only damnation

Is killing all salvation
Be my only damnation

When does dawn break for the abyss?
the bleak emptiness within me
How does the monster still hunger?
because there's only agony

RHASPSODY FOR LILITH
At the cusp of creation
Among the storms in the void
Stones of infinite magick
Shifted tombs within the soil
Of Heaven torn asunder
Godless endeavors came hence
To the beckoning of Her
Lilith on tides of war vents
the mother of Sin
thrust into dreams of Hymn
A TRAGEDY
OF CHRISTIANITY
pleasures of the Flesh
can never Caress
AWAY MISTRESS LILITH
Michael spied Lilith bathing
With his throbbing sword in hand
The siren song come and gone
She rose from springs of the damned
Michael's pulse...
Among the storms in the void

FETISH OF THE NEC-ROMANTIC WITCH
Moistened lips and the devil's kiss
Disobeying God by nature's law
The fetish of the nec-romantic witch
Bled on outer altars
By the ancient gods
Of haunted mausoleums
She sought him out, so devout
To be my concubine
Poised in trench warfare
Living under the gun
Where angels fear to dare
She wrought the hearts that burn
I still remember
Those nights dismembered
The dusk of Lovecraft comes
On parchment of dead tomes
All those innocent souls
Stranded at her door

LACERATIONS
I live my life
One curse at a time
Behind the blinds I hide
It seems I can never find
Something I can call my own
Life that's not dead and gone
My own secret song
Crossed with these bones
But it seems the bottom line
Has broken the dirt
The poisoned juice of the vine
Has been buried in hurt
And I draw a jagged line
With the razor blade
Again and again I try
To find, to find
My own grave
It seems the moon
And stars are doomed
Everything's gone too soon

7/10
you can't keep me in the shadows of your mind
your mind if you don't mind is mine
to rip asunder and dine any fucking time
Seven heads and ten horns
Batter through the door
Of reality, the frailty of enemies
Paint my walls a crimson dream
Birth of the demon seed
Her chrysalis, the nemesis and incubus
Reap the words she said
Ten horns on seven heads
I'm hated in the first degree
Walking this world tragically
If I'm to be your villain
Then I'm down for the killing
Lay you out on the slab
And...
your mind if you don't mind is mine
to rip asunder and dine any fucking time
Seven heads and ten horns
Batter through the door
Of reality, the frailty of enemies
Paint my walls a crimson dream
Birth of the demon seed
Her chrysalis, the nemesis and incubus
Reap the words she said
Ten horns on seven heads
I'm hated in the first degree
Walking this world tragically

LAMENTS OF THE DAMNED
On the cusp of midnight
Came a beast to my chamber door
The devil in the coffin
Swallowed the moon
That I gave to you
Left me alive but rotten
Pride goeth before the swoon
D O O M
Flys upon graveyard wings
Infernal choirs sing
TO ME
On the cusp of chaos
I choked on the bitter pill
So that I may feel the pain
Just give me one more chance - fix
The difference between night and day
It's plane to sea - can't you see?
Just give me one more chance - sick
Of all this bullshit every day ...

A SONNET FOR LILITH
Tonight the forlorn raven sang
Upon my quill and parchment
The gallows call to me
To take my place
Inside my shallow grave
So brackish, the vermin
Swarm over me
Beneath the hanging tree
I vomited blood on the page
As a sonnet set to flame
Lilith is the succubus of my dreams
As the haunted moon crests those pregnant skies
The wolves rending the night with winter screams
Worrying the quivering flesh tonight
Weep not for Lilith worship her instead
As nocturnal beasts fall under her...
Upon my quill and parchment
The gallows call to me
To take my place
Inside my shallow grave
So brackish, the vermin
Swarm over me
Beneath the hanging tree
I vomited blood on the page
As a sonnet set to flame
Lilith is the succubus of my dreams
As the haunted moon crests those pregnant skies
The wolves rending the night with winter screams
Worrying the quivering flesh tonight
Weep not for Lilith worship her instead
