Ancient Enemy Of Death

"...the earth was formless and void, darkness was over the surface of the deep..." - genesis 1:2

The dance of the spheres disturbs my song

And the rhythm of the waves beats with the drums

In my wakefullness i see the myth come to life

And from the vantage of my spire i come

With horns i went to the edge of the world

And with wings i shall return

For in the shadow and smoke i was veiled

And of the blinding light i am born again

Deep within the gathering of the seas

The snake watches with lidless eyes

The titan waits for the woman

The woman waits for the beast

During that hour i saw the lifting of a sleep

For i saw nehushtan rise from his keep

And though darkness still lay upon the deep

I heard the voices of men give up and weep
