Hesper Payne 06:24
my name is Hesper Payne cursed before the setting sun I blaze like the northern star doused in flame by the children of ignorance no amount of pain or prayer can turn me away form the outer gods my soul is sworn to the dark mother black goat with a thousand young Hesper Payne secrets of forbiden lore she bowed to unseen masters Hesper Payne lives forever in the soil priestess of the hungry trees I name is Hesper Payne beloved of uknown eons I dance dance round the ancient stones ushering madness into the world blind cattle of the weakling false god bind me with chains of fire my burned body dead but dreaming the curse lives of I shall rise again
2.
let me tell you a story of hatred death and despair from a time of darkness screams of the wretched fill the air Empty Emperor brooding in the darkness upon a throne of skulls dead eyes see everything staring at the suns demise winged things of abysal origin scream over ashen wastes grubbing in the dirt below the decendants of betrayal old, dead, hands reach for your soul Empty Emperor alone among the shadows rules over a cold dead world corpse planet, monoliths of deadstone stand stark against a pitiless sky funeral fire, consuming pyre inferno tombs that where once cities devestation now in rule carnage dances to the Emperors tune alone entombed in the frozen planet doomed until the end of time alone I control this world the forces of decay are mine to command entropy my cold and sterile lover birthed to me her children from her barren womb Empty Emperor carious in grimnity surveys his charnel palace feeling neither joy nor glory the embodyment of the void ash statues frozen in fear stand sentinel on nothing but dust Empty Emperor finally in solitude planet death spins on into darkness

Toadstool druid creeping through the forest pale skin dappled by the light that sneaks through the trees what unclean rituals you perform in the dark seeping up from below children of the soil heed your call words that writhe like the moss on the rocks slither about the cathedral of leaves rights of adumbration sepulchre of obscutration catacombs of disposetion golgothic world of cariosity call upon the black goat our mother her children swarm from the sepulchre of green the druid kneels before the abomination and delivers communion into the mouth of madness

I knew that when I saw her I would make her mine take my fill of her pretty flesh and gift her corpes to the inky brine her hair was the colour of the dawn her knowing smile divine her skin as pale as the hungry moon and yet her eyes seemed much older than her time could I have been anymore arogant? To belive myself the greater evil there are things much older than I could ever dream that lurk in forgeten places of the world she led me on a merry chace through dark deserted streets I ran till my lungs where fire downtowards the sound of the see through crooked alys that seemd to close behind me out onto a lonely little beach I cornered her in quiet secluded culvert to my suprise she smiled and beckond me the bitch was a sea frett, poured into woman flesh horrified I spied the seething mass she hid beneath her dress her body split throat to navel, a new maw in her chest she peared at me with ancient eyes and I forsaw my death then I knew how it was to be the prey her tendrils caught my limbs before I could escape she slid her teeth into me gentle as a lover as she dragged me to the sea I knew my life was over
5.
four days out of Aukland we picked up survivors of a drifting wreck a curious breed from the southern seas they carried and idol of a loathsome god deformed and wretched peeling skin and distended eyes pilgrims searching for a promised land hidden beneath the waves the old ones will rise again their shaman uttered through ulcered lips it was then that the fiends took arms stormed the bridge and captured the ship they set course for a storm building upon the eastern horizon and fell upon the crew with twisted knives teeth and claws from the waves rise gruesome spires siesmic effigy from primal days oh behold rising from the sea a million years of screaming terror insanity and grief dont look to christ to save our souls the sun has died in the leaden skies for these are the final days we approached an island newly risen from the sea upon it stood a collosal city the kingdom of the beast our captors, rejoicing fiends dragged us all ashore in a screaming frenzy forced us to open a titanic door from the bowels of the festering pit we heard the tyrants call a slithering horror a mountain of flesh from the darkness the nightmare crawled stars wheeled strange bells peeld madness a thousand ways as we beheld the lord of R'lyeh herald of the end of days
6.
in fear I bow to you great and terrible lord enthralling alien song drifts on the ages mucus choked chant to Yoth Kalla in his deep dark cold his queen awaits in fear I bow to you green and terrible lord enthralling alien song drifts on the ages send forward your cloying children clamour for the sweet flesh of man swarming up from emerald pressure roping arms writhe in the sun lord of the green abyss rise from eon slumber lord of the green abyss dwell in the dark no more
7.
two red orbs stare into the night purple ichor flowing to the sacrifice frozen y'kilith ice tomb from the stars waits for the end of time in the lonely northern sea R'lim Shekieroth the white worm devours those who seek his wisdom servant of the cold grey flame brought his doom to ancient hyperborea harbinger of the age of ice silent earth now a frozen tomb oh when the wind blows you hear him howling in the night out in the fridgid fog a crystal tomb awaits you doom from the cursed north will bring terror from his white fortress the ice worm rides again doom from the cursed north will bring horror nightmare coils writhing frozen stinking breath the air freezes in our lungs we will never thaw from his icy gaze waves frozen in eternal motion the worm uncoils and wraps the world in stillness

the sky was the colour of dead swans wings the placid dove roused to violence by the lashing winds hills bruised with heather tortured by relentless rain a lone weeping figure, naked save for shroud of pain my misery will out last the dulcet glow of the sun lost in abandonment the ghost consumed by evrything that has failed to be I told the bitch I loved her held her face in hand told her I would never leave gossemer promises so perfect yet so fragile deftly spun soon torn apart by the winds of deciet old aggie saw him riding look of purpose on his face hard upon the richmond road best get yourself in doors girl an ill wind chills my bones and I dont think hes coming home having taken his fill of her flesh my sire fled leaving the weeping whore soiled and bereft not before his seed had taken route and I came to be over come with shame she fled to the river to abort herself clean sarkless she stands in the murky water gutting her womb with whatever bloody hands can find roses and tears blossom on pale cold skin to late she acknoledges the storm bearing down upon her pretty head rain soaked all hope lost she lets her lungs fill with silt and weeds here in my cold wet birth grave I was born and shall haunt imprisoned in the swaddling flesh of my mothers womb forever I haunt this place with my curse trapped in the roting womb of this wretched whore forever unborn the pain corrupts both flesh and mind my hatred contaminates the soil the bitches weeping will never cease I will gift her untold horror for the torment she bestowed on me unbirth eternal imprisoned in her flesh forced to share the lords disdain so I invest my pain to tear the earth apart my rage will blacken the soil and curse the purest heart and we shall remain as one till sun is long dead and gone wandering the blackened earth beneath a starless sky forever more
