Ringed of stone Dark rocks from another time Broken, shattered, replaced By not by gnarled hands Hands, uncalloused, Delicate fingers, dragging Unholy stones, upturned Graves of creatures Not meant to Draw breath Concentric rings, reinforced rituals Blood, dried and fresh, decorate Form intricate scrolls, Forgotten languages Of Masters, dead and still walking Hailing dark forces, uncontrolled Like forcing the seas from the beach Standing at lowest tide And bringing creatures From it's depths Caught now In pools Far from the oceans Inland and unknown to those Others, they bend and crawl Broken of sanity and mind Tentacled things, fanged With inhuman strength A disjointed symphony From throats, forgotten Words, gurgling Choking on no language For the era of man Chained by the geometrical Patterns they don't understand They cringe and prostrate In lies to which should They but lunge, lashing out Powers which slash through Minds, bringing insanities Destroying any that they touch But rituals, forgotten even by them Elders, Masters worship, Star Gods Brought, mindless, from the Beyond Shipwrecked in our oceans of Earth Slumbering, shambling Others Slaved to their wills, games Bringing to bended knee Captured to barest glimpse Minds broken, eternal youth Women as vessels to hybrid life Birthed children, monstrosities each Chained, insane, locked to those Dark rocks, their shards show Surrounding prisons ages, old Centuries untold, legends, mythical Undulating naked bodies, show Dancing, sexually unbound Oiled, aflame though unburnt Soaking, basking in their power As their scream break, carry the night Quaking the Earth, shattering clouds They seek return, the stars, the seas To feast, again, on salted flesh To worship their kraken Father of them all

Ringed of stone Dark rocks from another time Broken, shattered, replaced By not by gnarled hands Hands, uncalloused, Delicate fingers, dragging Unholy stones, upturned Graves of creatures Not meant to Draw breath Concentric rings, reinforced rituals Blood, dried and fresh, decorate Form intricate scrolls, Forgotten languages Of Masters, dead and still walking Hailing dark forces, uncontrolled Like forcing the seas from the beach Standing at lowest tide And bringing creatures From it's depths Caught now In pools Far from the oceans Inland and unknown to those Others, they bend and crawl Broken of sanity and mind Tentacled things, fanged With inhuman strength A disjointed symphony From throats, forgotten Words, gurgling Choking on no language For the era of man Chained by the geometrical Patterns they don't understand They cringe and prostrate In lies to which should They but lunge, lashing out Powers which slash through Minds, bringing insanities Destroying any that they touch But rituals, forgotten even by them Elders, Masters worship, Star Gods Brought, mindless, from the Beyond Shipwrecked in our oceans of Earth Slumbering, shambling Others Slaved to their wills, games Bringing to bended knee Captured to barest glimpse Minds broken, eternal youth Women as vessels to hybrid life Birthed children, monstrosities each Chained, insane, locked to those Dark rocks, their shards show Surrounding prisons ages, old Centuries untold, legends, mythical Undulating naked bodies, show Dancing, sexually unbound Oiled, aflame though unburnt Soaking, basking in their power As their scream break, carry the night Quaking the Earth, shattering clouds They seek return, the stars, the seas To feast, again, on salted flesh To worship their kraken Father of them all
