The Mass of Entropy

Entropic acerbic root
A collapsing rung
Nifil infra, nihil ultra
An inverted sun
Succumb
Succumb to the chasm
Acknowledge
Death of foundation
Entropic soured fruit
A virulent harvest
Nihil infra, nihil ultra
Atavistic progress
A taste
A taste for infection
Architect in austere tribulation
To leaden the end
Is to deny the flame
Fall or ascend
The edge beckoning
Fall of ascent
Have you beheld
The river's end
"A symbol of light
His two hands forming the sign of hermeticism
The one pointing up to the white moon of the Quabbalic Chesed
The other pointing down to the black one of Geburah
This sign expresses the perfect harmony of mercy with justice
His one arm is female
The other male like the ones of the androgyn of Khunrath
The attributes of which we had to combine with our goat
Because he is one and the same symbol
The flame of intelligence shining
Between his horns"
Fevered
The mold on his teeth
Inversion
As a cure
Turning muscle to fog
Rows of gilded teeth
Miles of unburned pyre
Robe made of flesh
Parasite or Demiurg

What happens to the self
When first penetrated
By the arrows
Of consciousness
How quickly can
The proximate light
Give way to distant
Plains of nausea
Aware
Of the impossibility
Of passage back
Through the cobbled and sealed
Walls of innocence
Murky pools of ontology
Beckon the self
Into darker
Darker immersions
Grottos of night
Delirious scents
Transmitted by flesh
That leeches the sweat of perdition
And then equivocation
Falls to its knees
As the fevers
As the fevers take hold
The self, then sees
For the first time
It's inevitable path
Beset on all sides
By fear, uncertainty, and regret
Chased by the phantoms of the past
Cancerous tendrils
Ravaging the body
Which pines for the womb
Of unfeeling
And silence
Silence

Abiogenesis
Primordial black lungs
Fevered, atrophied
Lesioned by time
Recede
Salt
The earth
Sated arteries
Of rotted soil
Scald
The earth
A hymn to the serpents
They'll spawn rebirth
There is a void
A searing whole
Begetting absence
Gilded and cold
There came a void
A searing light
Reborn progenitor
Begat abscission
Salt the earth
Scald the earth
The cure to man
The adoration of naught
Purification
By flames
Of the Hegemon

A refracted trial
Administered in a sequence
Of patient cruelty
This ritual requires
Neither water
Nor dust
My curse took root
At first sight
Blood, thick
Tongue, drunk
With self knowing deception
My seed took root
At first light
I drank only of faith
And was poisoned
Here on these plains
Of vice and regret
I bear myself
Naked and weeping
Accompanied by silence
Shuddering in the light
Of the black sun
Black sun

Attended only by time
(And mockery devine)
And the toil of the boulder
(The burden of swine)
Turning nights into words
(And invert the sign)
Phases of the moon beget only....
Infinite Regress
Where Who When
The breath
Stolen
Purpose
Purloined and poisoned
The breath stolen
By the sublime
Vision
Ascending
Descending
Up the many hills
We search
For deeper
Truth
But a hawk
Is only
A hawk
Still I continue
Up the hill
The beads that gather on my thinking brow
Waters of my rebellion
Urging me through this desert
Of desire
I hurl mockery at Deimos
Where is your might in this vacuum
Et rebel quia absurdum est
Attended only by time
(And mockery devine)
And the toil of the boulder
(The burden of swine)
Turning nights into words
(And invert the sign)
Phases of the moon beget only....
Death
