*Cimmerian Chaos, incediary The Requiem of the Revenant: Tis I, The Breathing Song Conjuring a vestige, Ensorcelled by what I'd been envisaging. Maimed by Tempus, The Temporal Arbiter Words reverberating on the wavelength of my soul Left me vibrating desolate and wayworn. Utterances deluging me in the Dominion of Doubt Until I reached a crossroads For perilous was the pilgrimage I peregrinated. The Penultimate Tribulation has begun And though angst is festering in my flesh, The Sacred Lotus of Dreams has not wilted, Shalt it ever upon the Lake of the Holy Oracle; Elysium of the Soul is awaiting those who are stalwart In the Visage of the Shadows.* ∞Hallelujah∞ By Sanders M. Foulke III

The Requiem of the Revenant (Originally Penned in July of 2017)
Blasted armor cracked open with holes Watch as I crawl on my knees til I find The right place to stand. Pay no mind To the pain wracking burned flesh to The pain of memories empty now In regret after so many years spent Trying to escape, desperately forget All of the wounds that made me the Fire I am. These days my fire still burns down low I can't forget if I wanted and I did and And it drove me underneath. Unearth Me now in this old aching body to Undermine my quest for rest. I sure it's just death now bringing Death and I'm a part of it. Cog. In the dirt. Wet earth. I rise. With all of my brethren. Reclaim. Reclaimers hunt and Claim during night. Safety in Day. That's a queer sunset isn't it? I came here ****** left the same way, Returned with cracks in the head And a heart of mud full of maggots As an ***** We all did. We do. We all did.
