Locust Nexus Lyrics

The hydra headed hag
Expels her clutch of eggs
Cockatrice or basilisk I know not

Seed the darkness - inchoate
Moth eaten speed the decay
Recite mantras - illuminate
Debilitation plague

Concentration - weirding way
Shrouded idols - foetid age
Arbor vitae - extirpate
Empty vessels disintegrate

Ne plus ultra
Ivory towers smashed
Apes rampaging a broken silence

The sore of Carthage open again
Sallow mouths thirst for decline
This road sown with salt
Departed from its lips
A locust vilification

Picks at the bone
And rotted flesh tatters
Burnt by the wind

There are rats in the walls
of the palaces of greatness
Lice crawling in the heads of state
This is no flea bitten oracle
of the vox populi

For we are not the heralds
of the louse ridden crown
Nor progenitors
of a house dignified in death

False paths lead to temples of nihil
Like the necronaut under a blazing sun

To deliver destiny stillborn
A deliberate corrode…

Like a murder in the night
Ravens of dispersion chaos isotopes
Insect morass - pierce the veil
Enter now the world
