and on the wings of a dead bird he saw it first the way the earth had laid its claim and when he held the bones and flesh that still were left he learned that silence knew his name o, the light he had found! and in the orchard's falling leaves he did receive a message ringing loud and clear the fruit had rotted all the trees from underneath and there was nothing left to fear o, he would become something better than alive! (you will be buried by the weight of your desire. you will be reborn in the wake of holy fire. you will be here long after humans' final hour. your bones will blossom flesh and blood, infernal flower.) and in the soil's warm embrace his roots were laced a crawling maze of poison veins and he would bring about a swift apocalypse and all the world would know his name

Infernal Flower

desolation will colonize you.
