2. Invocation: The Conjuration Of Destruction
INVOCATION: THE CONJURATION OF DESTRUCTION
Lord Jezeus
Behold______________
Mighty voices of my vengeance,
Destroy the calmness in the air.
Stand as monoliths of wrath,
Upon a plain of writhing serpents.
I have become as a monstrous machine.
Annihilation of the body,
Who would detain me.
Black shapes arise,
From the brackish pit,
Vomit forth,
Pustulence.
I call upon,
The messengers of doom,
To slash with grim delight,
This victim I hath chosen.
Oh come forth in the name of Abaddon,
Oh great brothers of night.
Move and Appear.
Oh Kali,
Pierce his lungs with scorpion's sting.
Oh Sekhmet,
Plunge his substance into dismal void.
Oh,
Mighty Dagon.
I thrust aloft this barb of hell,
And on its tines impaled my sacrifice.
Through vengeance rests.
3. Our Killdom Come
OUR KILLDOM COME
The Abbess of Abjection
On Earth as it is in hell
Our killdom come
Our killdom come
Give us this day our daily blood
Our killdom comes
To all
Man's will is the prophecy
Found between the pages
Of this book of holy writ
Spawn of slaves and sages
Leach and rape and suffocate
Screams the song of songs
While genesis and exodus
Multiply the wrongs
As it was in the beginning
Till the wreck of time
So shall he pillage victory
So shall he end in slime
Hate stares out of every face
Condemned to brute machine
Trained to sodomize the land
With greed so sharp and lean
Man yearns to conquer everything
Break beasts beneath his fist
The bible as his red light queen
His lust will not desist
Yet the mouth that barks out gospels
Is but a seeping wound
While voices with loud battle cry
But baaing of the doomed
Inside the words of Solomon
And Moses' stone commands
Is cold adverse to suffering
Resistance to the land
Revelations' angel fuck
Levitican laws of flesh
Salome's dance and Judith's vow
And Judah's final test
Self righteous marks upon cement
While deep within Earth's bowels
Destroyer of this butcher's race
The planet's laughter howls
4. Terrorist Planet
TERRORIST PLANET
The Abbess of Abjection
Exeunt Armageddon
Stage righteousness, drop the curtain
Exeunt Armageddon
Terrorist planet, cease your turning
Exeunt Armageddon
Our masks lie in the dust
Poisonous prophets, brand-name lies
Speech of demon fear
Poverty's nations destroying our towers
Ancient crimes are bared
Heeding not the source of hate
Reach for war-bred answers
Crucify the mirror image
Increase your wealth's disaster
Annihilate iconoclasts
With death or death's close cousin
Comforts of consumerism
Ensure a profit's numbness
For all the Earth is now enraged
And we are merely slayers
The last land marked by simple need
Transformed into man's Eden
TV's, cars and cash for all
Greed, the last religion
Keys in hand for dreamed machines
We hear a fated rumble
Shudders rip through barren flesh
The corpse-disgorging ocean
Hostages of vengeance just
Volcanic acts of wrath
Burning coals disembowel us all
Make ash of sightless pasts
For all the Earth is now enraged
As we were merely slayers
5. The Inhumanist
THE INHUMANIST
The Abbess of Abjection
Prophet of abomination
Death's deliverance
for the masses lost
in their shadows
faceless at last
Beneath the foothills
Palo Verdes
Euripedes' country
A man
ancient loner
lives, caretaker of gore
in a land,
forsaken to hawks.
Day & night
he stalks
hungry for absence
for the sedge's rise
over tombstones & hearth smoke.
His only companion
a Double Axe
two blades of the tragic
held in his fist
onanism of steel
primed to smite
delighting in the purity
of violence.
Who sees him as he nears?
Doppelgangers crushed
by the wooden heft,
succubi raped
the shaft deep in flesh,
eyes shucked by the blade,
hollows speaking blood.
Not for vengeance
does he rupture
the weak ties
that blind us
to the grave's reality
but for mercy
murders
this pale reflection of grace.
Asserts the earth's
dark return
with every
weapon's swing,
each plunge
of his laughter
heralds a victory
for the waters
and the moon's
inhuman mask.
6. The Resign Of The Cross
THE RE-SIGN OF THE CROSS
The Abbess of Abjection
In the name of the Father
Touch the mind twisted by dogma
The brain impaled by plaster saints
The skull swinging from Sheol’s cross
In the name of the Father: loss
In the name of the Son
Touch the chest crushed by the testament
The heart pierced by genuflections to false martyrs
The ribs caging the censer’s rise
In the name of the Son: lies
In the name of the Holy Spirit
Touch the shoulder bruised by the crucifix
The shoulder whipped by phantom soldiers
The frame wreaking the heretic’s fate
In the name of the Holy Spirit: hate
Make the re-sign of the Cross
Cast these marks of bondage off
Make the re-sign of the Cross
7. The Flame In Red
THE FLAME IN RED: REPENTANCE THROUGH SIN
Lord Jezeus
In the name of Lord Pyerun of the Tchornibog!!
I am a spawn of the Flame.
May comets hail of thy coming
And rebirth ancient shadows as gods.
Arise!! Call the bones to the throne
The Immortal bones of the Madman.
Morena!! We invoke thee dancing goddess
Cast thy darkness o'er Earth.
Come forth from night
On leather wings take flight
Soar over mountains
Answer our call!!
Lord of the Red Flame...
Give power!!
And after death, may Christ
Condemn thee a devil!!
8. Haruspex: The Final Prophecies
HARUSPEX: THE FINAL PROPHECIES
The Abbess of Abjection
Spoken Intro
"On the hot stone of Aztec's martyrs
The mage's hand moves inside his victim's darkness
Parting the mouth of pain to its final statement
The thick web of entrails fingered like a rosary
Holy trinity of guts, blood & groaning
As the dying one writhes on his firey pallet
The judgment is spoken"
Marasmus of the planet
Seer's unholy verdict
Space & time is wasted
To a splinter of our purpose
Earth usurped by hunger
The Last Supper's vengeance
Dangling its cadavers
Endless mobile's sufferance
Babylon & Nineveh
Worlds reclaimed by fire
Lemnisc of brutality
Binding gifts of horror
Licking from the mountaintop
Flame's sharp banners flash
Neon in the mind of death
Clad with pelt's dark ash
Noah's haptic passage
Through his ark's infested waters
The swollen land engorging
Christ's insensate soldiers
Banks & dykes eroding
Torn by time's rank flood
Oceans choke the masses
With salt-redeeming blood
9. Let There Be Darkness
LET THERE BE DARKNESS
The Abbess of Abjection
Let there be darkness.
On the sixth day He
wrought man from the dirt
And gave him a heart-
lessness. Let there be darkness
and man do his part
to shape from the earth
creation's true nothingness.
Let there be dark
In the beginning
God made the end
Denying Satan
Annulling the abyss
Light over wastelands
Heaven-severed-Earth
The dome & the basin
Erasing all wholeness
God saw it was good
Because he couldn't see
Blind and mindless
Insane architect
Scattered the seeds
Ejaculated planets
Failed to account for
Death's immensity
At the end of the fourth day
The fatal word spoken
Fertile behemoth
Raven & vulture
Teeming ocean
Sky's ripe abundance
Yet the word lethal serum
When first human-uttered
Before God rested
Bequeathed his evil spawn
The blessing of a cancer cell
Dominion's metastasis
The divine image
Disease of the land
Encrusting earth's diversity
Genesis reversed.
