Sidereal Seas

Impossible tortured shapes
In uncanny theatric vigour
Haunt the petrified forest
Through which I trace the path
To the bitumen grounds
Where my bloodline linger
Descend the marble steps
Scintillating in the eerie light
Of a mercurial moon
Suspended in ageless journey
Across infinite sidereal seas

Beyond confines of constellations
In wraithform forever to abide

Transcend the ebony gates
Guarded by the outcasts of fortune
To colossal limestone vaults
Where cognate roots tarnish
Insonorous contemplation
And August replete antiquity

Beyond confines of constellations
In wraithform forever to abide

Merge with archaic intelligence
Devoid of mortal embodiment
Swept by empyrian tides
Into the maelstroem of oblivion
