Power of the Serpent

- Power of the Serpent -

What makes the flames burn in the crucible of the spirit?
Change, born from chaos and forged by the will’s power!
Only those of mundane mind couldst be given to fear it…
The dark alchemy of divine magic, the serpentine flower,
And all the secrets of the night, in all their darksome glory!
Transformation is the destiny, of all that doth not stagnate.
Banish all thoughts of failure, banish all thy fearful worry…
Cast them in the flames of the crucible, and thus eliminate,
All the limitations that once held thee back from ascension.
Let the power of the serpent rise within thee like the tide,
Until the waves of magical energy, ripple in anticipation…
Of the coming storm, which only the chosen may so ride!

All around thee, chaos surges and the dark power builds.
I stand at the center of a thousand energies all coursing…
Who shall stand with me, when even creation so yields!
Giving up its’ mysteries, bestowing unspeakable blessing.

Unleash the creative fire, and accept the serpent’s gifts…
Beyond light, beyond chaos, beyond changes and flame.
The darkness calls, as the emerald light shines at the left,
The left-handed path, which rewards all without shame…
Who art of the night, and willing to embrace ebon dark!
Be caressed by the velvet of these shadows, my children.
The shadows to which only the wise and powerful hark!
My black roses bloom in the heart of that pale garden…
Which lies at the heart of the serpent’s myriad mysteries.
Death canst not touch, that which doth eternally endure!
And the soul, the spirit, the power and the dark majesty,
These things pass not, from the universe’s vibrant shore.

All around thee, chaos surges, and dark power flows…
I stand at the center of a thousand energies so spiraling.
Who shall stand with me, when our new Eden grows?
Giving up its’ fruits, making all mortals queens and kings.

We art forever, and the power of the serpent triumphs,
Over the tyrannous hand that forces order upon chaos!
Swallow thy fears, even of death, and do this at once…
Embrace immortality, and be freed from pain, and loss!
My children art stronger than those who go unto dust…
And when the waves crash and the storm is unleashed,
We shall remain, and we shall, as ever, do: as we must.
The final victory is already written, prepared the feast…
And I have set a table for my children before the Abyss.
The great working commences, as it hath since all time,
So dawned upon the universe, after creation’s first kiss.
The serpent’s power is forever, its’ energy so sublime!
