Shade Between Shadows

In the rift where shadows split

Where angles writhe and forms commit

To twisting paths of maddened flight

In shades that crawl beyond the night

Abyssal lines that tear and fray

Unholy curves that twist the day

No mortal mind could bear the sight

Of darkness folded, turned to blight

The pillars bend with jagged spite

Where geometry corrupts the light

A latticework of eldritch might

That pierces through the heart of sight

No sacred plane remains intact

Just screaming shapes with chaos packed

They coil and churn, defy the law

A serpent’s dance in silent maw

The void-born angles, cursed and vile

That beckon with a crooked smile

A twisted grace that claws the sane

In corridors that loop in pain

A blackened hex of forms unnamed

A shadow kingdom left untamed

The shapes between, the madness sown

A temple to the dark unknown

Bent asunder, reason breaks

The angles chant in seething flakes

A choir of the abyss’s embrace

That whispers lies in twisted lace

Escher-dreams of cursed descent

The void's embrace is serpent-sent

A place where light is torn to shreds

And sanity in silence bled

With razored edges cut in dark

The shadow’s curse will leave its mark

A labyrinth of seething spite

In shades between the dying light

Geometries of void’s design

A fractal hymn of the malign

An altar made of twisted hue

Where gods of dark their will construe

Here lies the shadow's vile domain

Where sanity and dark remain

Bound in angles sharp and wrong

A hymn to those who don't belong

No compass holds, no light redeems

In shadowed realms of broken dreams

Where shapes between the shadows stray

And tear the night from light’s decay
