The Scapegoat |
| I who wait and writhe and wrestle |
| With air that hath no boughs to nestle |
| My body weary of empty clasp |
| Strong as a lion and sharp as an asp |
| Give me the sign of the Open Eye |
| And the token erect of the thorny thigh |
| And the word of madness and mystery |
| Scapegoat |
| I am a man |
| Do as thou wilt as a great god can |
| I am awake |
| In the grip of the snake |
| The eagle slashes with beak and claw |
| The gods withdraw |
| The great beasts come |
| Scapegoat |
| Goat of thy flock I am gold I am god |
| Flesh to thy bone — flower to thy rod |
| Thrust the sword through the galling fetter |
| With hoofs of steel I race on the rocks |
| Through solstice stubborn to equinox |
| All-devourer — all-bequetter |
| And I rave |
| And I rape and I rip and I rend |
| Everlasting — world without end |
| Scapegoat |
| (From «Hymn to Pan» by Aleister Crowley) |
