Star-Maps of the Ancient Cosmographers |
The Great Eye of the Universe opens! |
Through this astral art the secrets of the |
Cosmos are mine to know… for the stars are my dominion! |
Empowered at the periphery, ascending to the Id’s eyrie, |
The cosmos feathers her nest with fire. |
Ephemeral, the nexus calls, besieging cyclopean walls, |
Branded deviant and pariah. |
Betwixt the hammer and the anvil are forged the stars… |
On the wings of the ersatz ones… through the fathomless abyss. |
Like a blackened and baleful sun shall I gaze down from beyond the cumuli and |
The firmament upon you. |
I alone must bear the burden of this fiend-wrested lore. |
New stars without number burn in the heavens, but the shadow of oblivion falls |
Ever closer. |
Shortly thereafter, the dreamscape began to fade, and reality beckoned my Consciousness away from the incredible vista. |
In truth, I was indeed glad to Awaken… |
