Bitter Licorice

...the coven of the dead, but who is
pulling the strings as the earth burns
leaving a taste of bitter licorice
sucking the marrow from the living
with raging torrents from the winged
tongue of the praying mantis rutting
in decay listening to the stone's
requiem of cloistered monks
chanting debauchery  
Written by adagio
