Escaped our yesterdays

And yet they have given way

To abandoned scaffolding

Left bare upon the skyline

Denied the heights they would reach

Or the shelter they would mother

!Ex Nihilo Nihil Fit

The Under Painting is showing through

Grey pigament putrefied

And yet the skeleton somehow more true

Abandoned by its painter

god

The world is a masterpiece

Struck dumb by turpentine

For the soul

The frame cannot contain

The emulsifying spirit

Drowned in Water

Corrodes the soul

Yet the stone gets hotter

Bathed in VITRIOL

The world is a masterpiece

Struck dumb by turpentine

For the soul the Frame cannot contain

The emulsifying spirit

Now raise the Gorgons Head

With the Star so Malefic

Poison the Waters of Return

To invert the Runes Horrific

They Raised the Gorgons Head

To the Stars they’re so Malefic

Poisoned Waters of Return

Inverts the Runes Horrific

The world is a masterpiece

Struck dumb by turpentine

For the soul the Frame cannot contain

The emulsifying spirit

We Raised the Gorgons Head

And now the Star they’re so

!Malefic

We poisoned the

Waters of Return!

And inverted the Runes!

Horrific
