Hounds

Dead leaves burrowed
By crawling slaves
Wretched remnants
Dead leaves burrowed
By crawling slaves
Wretched remnants
Struggling in vain
As waters come running down
Intruding their maze

Beneath the soil
Deep down below
In fathomless depths
Where serpents grow

Beneath the spoil
Deep down below
In fathomless depths
Where serpents grow

Behind the drapes
Where shadows loom
In fathomless depths
Where serpents grow
In the haze
Of revolving wills
That define life
Lies in wait
The absurdity
Of time

Maggots feeding
From the predator s eves
The carcass decaying
As the scavengers feast
Molden fur falls oft
From the side of the beast
Rotten flesh
Detached from bone

Beneath the spoil
Deep down below
In fathomless depths
Where serpents grow

Wolves scouting hills
Ground dressed in white

Vultures circle overhead
Drawn by the scent of death

From the fog
Figures emerging
Their stature is changing
As they approach
Let us now
All bound in legion
Howls arc changing
A new wave of fear
Fear
