Come Forth Fire Through the Hole in Time

by Anomaly in Effigy

How then did it come to pass that we should stand upon this ground Starlight raining on our brows Summer winds that bear the seeds We are stainless golden strands within the web that has no end Clarion the horn that calls Awakening the falcon's sight Nurturing the embers still Glowing brighter with each breath Shielded from the wind and rain Seeking fuel to raise the flame Burn away the useless shame Burn away the worthless guilt Burn away unwanted pity Burn away all false selves Pure and white the cleansing flame Lick my bones and purge my eyes True and perfect holy flame Rise, rise, rise!

By Will there is dissolution By Will I am made manifest By Will I plunge into the hells By Will there is ecstasy Are we the creators of our own suffering? Did sadism construct the universe? Did lust exile us into duality? Or are there ends we do not perceive? Was it chance as the vulgar preach? Or by decree as the blind contend? Are we asking the right questions? Can we even comprehend? Cast all into the flame Reveal what is not consumed Above flesh Beyond mind Above matter Beyond gods

Here I come at last to the hoary misty peaks Reaching up a hand to pull myself onto the pyre Beyond the reach of anything that wears a cloak of flesh Lying now in the roaring flame Losing myself in the lambent spears Becoming incandescence Motion within motion Individuality melting in converging rays Leaving my humanity like slag upon the stone Uncorrupted victory supernal and sublime Simplified complexities and paradoxes solved Seeing all with just one eye Undistorted, without limit Duo in unum Unus in nihil

The fields amongst which I dwell less desolate than the crowded streets At once too advanced and too primitive A vast living web turned hive of cold hollow chambers My church is defiled on an hourly basis Contemptuous glances Oblivious faces Bathe the lands in Promethean blaze Cleanse the earth in Gibil's breath Carve a Yod on the great tree's roots Rouse us from somnambulance May Vulcanus split the ground Agni's shrine ignites the black Hadit burning in our hearts Drive the fucking bastard back

Down from the silent void to the world of change and form With the milk of Mother and encouragement of Father and with the promise to return to the unborn one residing in the womb of omnipresence Passing through the veils of all illusions to plant these roots in the earth to taste these fruits and breathe this air Blithe and unconstrained One amongst many Separate and distinct One amongst many Clambering for the false throne One amongst many Knives against each other's throat One amongst many Forgotten what we are It's easier to fly without a head The wise kill expectation in the womb We're so modern and above it all We're so fucking highly evolved We're so modern and above it all We're so fucking highly evolved Hell can be wherever you sow the seed Hell can be right fucking here Hell can be everything you think you need Hell is ever only right fucking here Devour me! Devour me!

Written by Blackmore/Dio I'm a wheel, I'm a wheel I can roll, I can feel And you can't stop me turning Cause I'm the sun, I'm the sun I can move, I can run And you'll never stop me burning Come down with fire Lift my spirit higher Someone's screaming my name Come and make me holy again I'm the man on the silver mountain I'm the man on the silver mountain I'm the day, I'm the day I can show you the way And look, I'm right beside you I'm the night, I'm the night I'm the dark and the light With eyes that see inside you Come down with fire Lift my spirit higher Someone's screaming my name Come and make me holy again I'm the man on the silver mountain I'm the man on the silver mountain Come down with fire And lift my spirit higher Someone's screaming my name Come and make me holy again I'm the man on the silver mountain I'm the man on the silver mountain Oh I can help you, you know I can I'm the man on the silver mountain I'm the man on the silver mountain Just look at me and listen I'm the man, the man, give you my hand I'm the man on the silver mountain Comin' down with fire And lift your spirit higher I'm a man on a mountain The man on the silver mountain I'm the night, I'm the light I'm the black and the white I'm the man on the silver mountain I'm the man on the silver mountain

about

Fire is a process. Fire is a gateway.

"Scatter, as from an unextinguish’d hearth
Ashes and sparks, my words among mankind!
Be through my lips to unawaken’d earth."

― Percy Bysshe Shelley, Prometheus Unbound
