5. Litany unto Thanateros (10:07)
Thanateros; I engorge thee in throes of lust and motionlessness
Tandem force to tremble nations in thy fiery ocean's caress
I call thee forth out of myself and (from) afar I draw thee near
Louder and louder thy crimson waves keep crashing in my ear

Blood moon lit trysts at the shore of the thresholds where corpse pallid lovers swoon
Untimely widdershin waltzing 'pon beaches that lead to an unmarked tomb
An epitaph spoke through the mouths of theatrical masks at the cusp of a dream
Barbarous words were imprinted therein as enigmatic emberous phosphene

And drawing near the canvas of demaphyr
Where nymphomanic witches dance
And fornicate before the starry gate
Climaxing in Thanaterotic trance
I joined them there, bewildered thence
Partook of their elixir and burned a strange incense

A star-studded earth; amorphous was the altar stone
Upon which I lay face first in silence deafening
And there within that silence many nameless faces groaned

Mine intent was written
And cast through the angles nine
Mercury requited with a Sulphur sign

Mine intent remitted
And thrust to the annals of time
In the dark committed as a star enshrined

High 'bove austere mountains casting it's light over all with its far reaching rays
Stirring awake from this livid and vivid vision unfolding in manifold ways
Nighttime befell the soul ageing it gracelessly- mere minutes as years
So sweet was the bitterness tasted in the tides of Hir transformative tears

From those tears surged
A tremendous vision and a voice imparting unto me
Like a crack between the worlds, reminding subtly
"See me not as the gate but a pair of twin keys"

Mine intent cast inward
As a lance of sacrifice
Undistorted, mirrored and anointed thrice

With the blood seen clearer
And stolid t'ward virtue or vice
As formless fire and determined ice!

{From deep wells; endlessly-
Spiralling helically
Seemingly opposed
Diametrically
Ne'er thou wert singularly
Though'n dynamic unity
Death's stillness- passionately
Breathing force into ecstasy}

Now in a cosmic waltz the voluptuous harlet
With wide grinning death- White, Black and Scarlet
Art the energies whorling in twine
Within the chaotic web of time

Out through this web this litany sung
And through the high halls of infinity is hung
The severed head of abstention
O, joy and revulsion- one in this ascension

In coming to know no god to be found
But the juggernaut of nature unbound
And the lashing waves of chaos; unstable
Those forces abound that dwarf us in their cradle

Agios Thanateros
