Ghosts

I can taste the dark ancestry of ghastly dreams where cloven hooves and flickering flames dance along the castle hallways in ritualistic celebration; and I love the night, where haunting apparitions caress my slippery soul and tantalise my deepest fears. Listen to the grandfather clock, as its hypnotically audible awareness transports our being to a myriad of dusty volumes upon the ancient shelves of a Golden Dawn. Owls are beautiful creatures of nocturnal stealth. Yet, the beginning is nothing more than the end, in her deceptive disguises. Although their are eight points to her identity, Ishtar has innumerable expressions. Therefore, attempts to domesticate are futile. Let us now invoke ancient daemons and engage in the wisdom of counsel, as we remain awake and share our confessions. Men are visual creatures.
