Numinous Catastrophy
Flux of shame and exultation
Inner intoxicating, delightful tremor
Warmth and mellowness in defeat
In it the sense of victory!
Lost all faith in inspiration
And miraculous veneration of truth
Uncontrolled and entangled
Perpetually confused
A lifeless form of life
A spiritual lust
We hunger for esoteric nourishment
Primordial prior prevailing delusion
Of salvation of the soul
Delusions freed in malign
Inspired onslaughts of skeptics
And outer restlessness
The extinction of morality
And the spirits from the past
The harsh, the powerful, the impetuous
Oh the potent wretchedness!
We bear onward the banner of enlightenment
And celebrate the destruction of Christian dogma
The devious web-weavers bewilderment
As they succumb to their own malediction
The diminished and uprooted, imago dei
And maggots in life's bread
