Mephitic Haze
Imprisoned on rotten shores
Far beyond the rays of light
Echoes from a lifeless chasm
In a venomous stream
White silhouettes wade
Through mephitic haze
Incessantly wandering

Skeletal march through marshes of rotting flesh
Frail footprints paved in putrid mud
Upon this forsaken mound
Deathly totems lie in ruinous decay
Amidst impenetrable walls of crushed bones

Ageless terror
Bestial horror
Lies dormant below
The cosmic gallows
Disharmonious howls beckon
In blind dementia
Ensnared in feverish dreams of death
Succumbed to inertia
Parched hands reach out
Oasal visions emerge
Behold
Salvation’s deformed visage
