Graves Of The Fathers
Crystal Age

Sextons of the churchyard

Have seen unblessed things;

Ground no longer hallowed

Has sprouted new graves


Descendants of clan

That unsurped maternity

hear whispers in their blood;

This summons of the Fathers


Adherence to the principle

Of man by woman born:

Anachronistic ritual

Soon to be obsolete


Forgive me Father

For I know not what I do;

My grave beckons

As irresistable as drawing breath


Nature abhors a vacuum,


The same is true to a tomb

It cannot be empty

A barren womb of plenty

A vacant grave must be filled.

For this the Fathers' will

Material birth be abjure

A mother's cunt is unpure


Sired in blasphemy

In nocturnal obeisance to rotted hearts

Filled with necrolatry

Reverse the life cycle be reborn through Death.


Forgive me Father

For I know not what I do;

I leave a void to fill one

Hear my prayers from far below
