Mystagogue

From the beginning
to the highest point
Here and everywhere
Toward the year of wonder

Tied to the soil
are my scattered remains
Tethered to the torches,
tempered in the flames
The whole world hates us
we are cursed, we are chased
To all the world nothing
from nothing, nothing is made
Sterile are the lepers
so safe are the whores
So born have I fasted
beyond sheild, before sword
You are the stork
that has landed on earth
I am the blackbird
who has taken... flight

Brighter through darkness
Kiss the mouth
bleeding from the wolf
Take the hand
that holds serpent's poison wind
The unknown explained
by the unknown
The unknown explained
by the unnamed

Women weep at the shore
For the men will not return.
For there is no more, no...

No sword of anxiety
cuts into our skin
No shadow of destiny
goes unbroken

Fortune takes flight and returns

Furor scribendi
All ills of flesh
Furor scribendi
All ills of flesh
