Heaven Torn Asunder

Rise, ablaze, libidinous 

Devildom voyeurs 

Ascend to smother the light 

Nascent aeons confer....

 

Chaos is spat 

From the black eternal sea 

Serrated mountains of mad shadows 

Carving towards misdeed

 

Stormchoirs gather 

A pestilential hiss 

Sunset evokes Luciferian fire 

The skies are ruptured like a knifed orifice 

Supernal vestments hang tattered 

Cathedrals shriek to pulpit oratory 

Invasions scale Babel's ivory towers 

Poised to sodomise a world upon it's knees

 

(Victory spent 

Breathe deep benighted scent)

 

We are as a flame born unto the darkness 

Desires burning in palatial glades 

And virtues once aloof, now worming beneath us 

Shalt see their children, pleasuring as slaves.... 



Attack!

 

Wreak atrocities on those we have despised 

Judgements be riven, from the skies 

Darkness empower let us master prophecy 

Fulfilling destiny - the promised fever

 

Bedizens eyes paralysed with blasphemy 

Written in flesh across the howling ether

 

Artemis 

Spread the bliss of this Lupercalia

 

With stars erased, throw wide the gates 

The infidel soon unmasks her face 

Neath silken shroud she waxes horn 

Sharpened to skewer dawn....

 

I am as a plague, born to the priestess 

The secret amour of her archangelic rape 

Jaded-eyed when my lovers, possessed 

Screamed out their agonies, upon the stake

 

"The most August sorcerers of Hades 

Darkly seized for me a throne 

And the upraised scythe so terribly scribed 

Vengeance in Jesuit blood on stone

 

From this ransacked celestial temple 

I hold the prophet's severed head unto all nations" 



Tremble before us 

Lords of the star-veiled red sepulchres 

Rushing deathwards, our Tartarean fires 

Kindle pandemonia to furnace the earth

 

"Our voices are opened graves 

Through which the never-dead escape"

 

From dank, abyssic dream 

Pursuing ascendancy....

 

The enemy has held three seasons 

Imparadised, whilst we writhed 

To psycho-dramas penned by aerial decree 

Now freed to plunder.... 


Heaven torn asunder

Candelabra snuffed prey - silhouette wedded 

Nightfall take my hand 

Seduce me with silky timbred limbs 

Grant me thy dark command 

Over the peaks framing tapestries 

Of thick forest, dusk has filled 

With Lucifugous kisses enwreathed in mist 

Creeping like violations from the shadows 

to kill

 

Lucretia 

is my love in vein 

When thy tears bleed sweeter 

Thank the midsummer rain? 

Bewinged, infested belfries 

Toll o'er the sobbing throng 

A writhe of lethargic, terrored nudes 

Whipped and welted neath the barbed windsong.... 



(in saddean paradise 

Ancestral legacies linger on....)

 

I am He 

The crowned and conquering darkness 

Satan robed in ecumenical filth 

Livid Bacchus sustained by bridal echelons of sylph 



This wintry eve when the snow glistens deep 

And sharpened turrets wed the jewelless skies 

I shrug off the shroud of preternatural sleep 

Enbroided by these words Malaresia scribed....

 

"Beauty slept and angels wept 

For Her immortal soul 

In this response, all evil chose 

To claim her for their very own"

 

Carpathia 

The pleasured dead speak of her 

In necromantic tongue 

When ambered daylights are done

 

Masterbating in their graves 

On her zenith to come....

 

This catafalque night when awed stars report 

Their absence from the heavenly brow 

Crippled seraph shalt cower in illustrious courts 

Whilsts the cloaked maelstrom resounds throughout 



"How the storm it fulfills 

My heart though unhealed 

Celestial knifes ebonied 

And wild woods thrill 

Yet far fiercer still 

Her lustre eviscerates me"

 

Carpathia 

Priapic lovers twist in concert with Her 

Covenants are struck, jagged lightning fellates 

The path towards the castle weary innocence takes 



I rule as Master here 

Where feral hordes impart my temper 

Love sank wounded when I, betrayed 

saw death etch cruelly, upon my lineage

 

"Usher the spite seething Draconist 

And commit this world to thy ancient 

sovereignty"

 

Erunescent veil descend 

Psalmed sunset thus portends 

And laid to rest, I now am blessed 

With this darkness.... Forever more

 

Supreme Vampiric Evil

Evening minuetto in a castle by the sea 

A jewel more radiant than the moon 

Lowered Her mask to me 

The sublimest creature the Gods, full of fire 

Would marvel at making their Queen 

Infusing the air with Her fragrant desire 

And my heart reeled with grave poetry....

 

From grace I fell in love with Her 

Scent and feline lure 

And jade woodland eyes that ushered in the impurest 

"Erotic, laden fantasies amid this warm Autumn night 

She lulled me away from the rich masquerade 

And together we clung in the bloodletting moonlight" 

Pearled luna, what spell didst thou cast on me? 

Her icy kiss fervoured my neck 

Like whispering waves 'pon Acheron's beach 

In a whirl of sweet voices and statues 

That phantomed the dying trees 

This debauched seductress in black, took me....

 

In a pale azured dawn like Ligeia reborn 

I tore free of my sleep - sepulchre 

On the sea misted lawn where stone figures, forlorn 

Lamented the spectre of Her 

Bewildered and weak, yet with passion replete 

I hungered for past overtures 

The curse of unrest and her ardent caress 

Came much more than my soul could endure....

 

I, at once endeavoured to see Her again 

Stirring from midnight's inertia 

Knowing not even her name 

On a thin precipice over carnal abyss 

I danced like a blind acolyte 

Drunk on red wine, her dead lips on mine 

Suffused with the perfume of night

 

For hours I scoured the surrounding grounds 

In vain that we might meet 

When storm clouds broke, ashened, fatigued 

I sought refuge in a cemeterty

 

Sleep, usher dreams 

Taint to nightmares from a sunless nether

 

Mistress of the dark 

I now know what thou art

 

Screams haunt my sleep 

Dragged from nightmares thou hast wed together

 

Lamia and Lemures 

Spawned thee leche 

To snare my flesh

 

Portrait of the Dead Countess

 

Deep stained pain that I had dreamt 

Flaunted demise, life's punishment 

Leaving little strength to seal this wretched tomb.... 



But poised nectar within my stirs 

Up feverous desire and morbid purpose to search 

Through cobwebbed drapery to where she swoons 

Goddess of the graveyard, of the tempest and moon 

In flawless fatal beauty her very visage compels 

Glimpses of a heaven where ghost companies fell 

To mourning the loss of god in blackest velvet 

Enrobed in their downfall like a swift silhouette 



"Fleeting, enshadowed 

Thou art privy to my sin 

Secrets dead, wouldst thou inflict 

The cruel daylights upon my skin? 

Dost thou not want to worship me 

With crimson sacrifice 

So my cunt may twitch against thy kiss 

And weep with new-found life?"

 

Red roses for the Devil's whore....

 

Dark angels taste my tears 

And whisper haunting requiems 

Softly to mine ear 

Need-fires have lured abominations here....

 

Nocturnal pulse 

My veins spill forth their waters 

Rent by lips I cherish most

 

Awash on her perfidious shores 

Where drowning umbra o'er the stars 

Ebon's graves where lovers whore 

Like seraphim and Nahemah

 

"Nahemah"

 

Pluck out mine eyes, hasten, attest 

Blind reason against thee, Enchantress 

For I must know, art thou not death? 

My heart echoes bloodless and incensed....

 

Doth temptation prowl night in vulvic revelry 

Did not the Queen of Heaven come as Devil to me? 

On that fatal Hallow's Eve when we fled company 

As the music swept around us in the crisp, fated leaves 

UNder horned Diana where her bloodline was sewn 

In a graveyard of Angels rent in cool marbled stone 

I am grieving the loss of life in sombre velvet 

Enrobed in Death's shadow like a swifter 

silhouette....

Weak midnight promises of love 

Were wept upon Her grave 

And shunned by stars above 

In mortal life lurks my dismay 

An Angel stole my heart 

and Death took Her away

 

She sleeps beyond the grace of god 

A dreaming beauty 

If wishes could only fray that bond 

The dead would sing for me...

 

Twelth moon arose with ghostly voice 

A poet's serenade 

Her name a whisper 'pon my lips 

And lo, Rorasa came

 

Fear me not my grieving King 

Funereal in breath 

The secrets of the dark I know 

And thus, we shall cheat Death"

 

My promises wrought though despondence that night 

Have delivered me gifts from the grave 

Rorasa enshadowed and eternal life 

Never a Devil so vain 

The Angel is fallen, for I thought her lost 

And no heaven would silence the pain 

Teach me these secrets, the sensual frost 

Desire for warm blood again

 

Princess lay down thy florid cheek 

In drunken splendour 

Tonight rare regal fate has cast 

The wolves among the sheep

 

Dark nature clasp my soul 

Around Her throat mine arms enfold 

To sleep, perchance to dream 

And then... 

To dusk and flesh ascend

 

The Sun descends, magenta spirits fill the skies 

and wreak erotic maladies where sex and Death abide 

From writhing tides where gothick siren weave their song to shore 

Through the ashes of the battlefields where ravens and angels war 

As phantoms we have fled the basilisk of day 

To rise as phoenix taloned, nightly taking prey

 

We rule like the red and risen moon upon the sea 

The stars of judgement silent, for we share joyous 

Eternity 

Damnation 

Salvation 

Stigmata plague

 

The wine of Bacchus flows 

Listen to the thunder rage

 

Deceivers dragged before their cross 

I am He that vanquished Death 

And bore the sting of loss 

What vulgar christ will unprise my grasp? 

His temple, ruined, burns 

And sweet Rorasa laughs

 

I am enamoured and imparadised 

To catch the fires dancing profanely in her eyes 

"I will crush them all 

If this holds thy delight" 

Rather dead forever than to lose her 

Nymph-lascivious Aphrodite

Take away the wine 

For restlessness plagues me.... 

I am assailed by a spectre profounder 

Than hatred and grief or the sum of their hideous crime

 

I shalt suffer this confessional mime

 

Awaiting the sun to set, crimsoning seas 

Only once it is dark doth my misery cease

 

She died to a sky dressed in flame 

Eyes full of curses for her killers by choice 

Who fell to their god o'er her vision and voice

 

"I am as dusk come to ravish the light" 

Steal me from their stares and mute christ into night 

"I will answer thy prayers" 

If thou Wouldst drink of my life....

When the sun has wept upon the waveless lake 

And the mists steal in with ease 

Covened wolves are their eerie dissonant napes 

In adoration of the moon and thee

 

"They call as I to thee...."

 

And I will come, as if in dream 

My languid, dark and lustrous Malaresian Queen 

Of vengeful, ancient breed 

Gilded with the pelts of many enemies 

Erishkigal, raven-haired 

Thy seduction haunts the castle in erotic despair 

I can taste thy scent by candlelight 

Legs of porcelain traced and laced to their lair 

Appease the beast on spattered sheets 

Dyed unearthly red as sobriety weeps

 

Nocternity.... 

She shall come for me

 

A black velvet painting sprung to elegant life 

Like a poignant Madonna perverted to night 

And I have ridden from the westerning light 

To expend my lust 

Tear away the funereal dress 

Know that I will escape from my death 

Surrendered to the splendour of her sharpened caress 



Lo! The pale moonlight 

Weaves a poetic spell of vital death and decline 

Of mist and moth and the hunger inside 

Kisses took to fever and the fever, demise

 

"Through twilight, darkness and moonrise 

My scarlet tears will run 

As stolen blood and whispered love 

Of fantasies undone"

 

Countess swathed in ebony 

And snow-white balletic grace 

Rouge-filmed lips procure the wish 

For lust and her disgrace

 

Dusk and her embrace

 

We shall flit through the shadows 

Like a dream of (were)wolves in the snow 

Under deadly nightshade 

Still warmed with the kill's afterglow

 

Beneath the stars thy flesh bedevils me 

(Beneath the stars taste the death in me) 

Bequeath to me thy fiery kiss 

To sever thin mortality

 

Elizabeth 

My heart is thine 

Thy fragrant words Warm within like wine....

 

"Let me come to thee" 

With eyes like Asphodel 

Moon-glancing, loose desires free 

To writhe under my spell"

 

Ereshkigal, raven-haired 

Thy seduction haunts the castle in erotic despair 

I know thy scent by candlelight 

Immortal flesh I yearn to share 

Appease the beast on spattered sheets 

Dyed malefic red as sobriety weeps 

Nocternity 

She shall come for me....

 

Unfurl thy limbs breathless succubus 

How the full embosomed fog 

Imparts the night to us....

Death, spirit me away 

My anguished soul doth strain 

On taut and twisted reins 

Yet, insatiate I still remain 

Like a proud, unfalled star 

That dares thee from afar 

To calm my thund'rous heart 

Else, rend it's knots apart 

So I may never sing

 

Of jewelled skies o'er my strings 

And love, a wanton thing 

Can plunge on burnt, black wings 

To hang amid the thorns 

In scarlet, like velvet worn 

About the clouded moon 

Who wanes in solitude....

 

I am alone 

Thirsting for the dark 

That lurks beneath marbled stone 

What black witchcraft 

Shalt prise thee from thy dreams 

And what perverse world-strategy 

Will wend it's way with thee from sleep?

 

"Rouse my disease 

And with cadent naked dance I shalt teach 

Thee wisdom of darkness 

From earth and red sea

 

Lightbearing Samael 

Coalesce with me...."

 

Twilight 

Through pagan city gates 

Bred shadows play like twining snake 

By candlelight 

Thanateros rites 

Death seduced and chaos wakes....

 

Obsession grips, blindragon fever 

In throes of scythed orgasm, Eros dies 

And Saturn rapes faith's lovelorn Diva 

Upon a cyprean altar, stripped bare for sacrifice 

Virtue births a demon 

Pandora's box, unhinged, sets loose the night 

Winged lilith born for want of Eden 

Fanning plumes of harlotry 

Like pearls before the desert swine

 

The skies, they darken 

And the oceans part

 

Storm forth indignant Kraken 

Reborn Venus as thou art 

Feasting at my banquet 

Of Saturnalia 

I call thee having wrestled 

The tides from lonely Diana

 

"For thee Endymion 

I forsake the cerements of this star-flung tomb" 



Be-with-us come 

Unveil the ancient flame 

Throw the cats our enemies 

Desire's menstrual strain 

Eastern Devil eyes 

A cruel erotic plague 

The Shekhina is in exile 

And the Israelites enslaved to shame

 

Midnight 

Jerusalem 

A tenebrous phantasy 

Revelates to men 

Their celestial walls crumble 

When walks the Xul 

Born to the scarlet whore in Babylon

 

The centuries of wait have all but gone 

Behold dark beauty stirs to conquer on and on

 

Now worship Everything

Herodias and I have led a phantom cavalcade 

Through veiled and pagan history where superstitions reigned 

And Christendom sought to pervert, but poets of my name 

Sang of penumbral victories that sorcery had claimed 

The Graal and mighty Caliburn as votive offerings 

To an England rearisen under vast majestic wings 



These are the shores whereto my soul 

Blood drenched and unredeemed 

Shalt seek solace in secrets told 

Through the whispers of a dream

 

From the woods Pendragon-born, I rose Arcturius 

A proud, audacious King mantled in the 

vehemence of lust 

Death and destiny undaunted me, I drew a throne divided 

In awe of the glorious battles won, my dark Goddess provided 

Then treachery, a wingless beast, came crawling to my court 

And now I lie at cursed Camlann, from wounds a traitor wrought

 

I fear the Augean light 

is sweeping through Camelot 

How bittersweet my triumphs seem, 

now Autumnal leaves succumb to frost 

Morganna art thou near me? 

Languid, I wend my path to grave 

Cast my sword to the sulphyd grasp 

Of the naiad neath the silvered lake 

When waters stirred lay silent

 

Mistress let the mists descend 

Thy tears cannot thaw Death's cold heart 

His sombre gaze defies legend 

More so than thine, else thy dew-lidded eyes 

Art for the Banshees song 

Or our souls entwined like vein upon 

The haunted shores of Avalon

 

The haunted shores of Avalon

 

Bury me in velvet dream 

Lest I unduly wake 

And seek to reconcile my thirst 

With the cowardly tailors of my fate 

Unleash mastiffs of snarling night 

To overthrow, plague and burn 

As slumber lures me 'mongst the dead 

To scheme of my return

 

Archaic ghostly echoes breathe like thunder of the storm 

A tempest fools miscall divine as they crouch awaiting dawn 

Their ignorance has forged for me over 

centuries a sword 

Burnished to flash like lightning on the precipice of war 

The wolves are dead in Albion whilst the 

passive flocks roam free 

This my penetrant spearhead shalt pierce these foul, 

trespassing breeds
