Holocryptic Passages

Rising from the desert ash

Once I burned from within

Under sun, on the altar

Five centuries, again reborn

*

For I am the holder of the key

*

Like none who’ came before I

Tempest of fire, scorned

Interlunar traveler, old

My name is Immortal

*

For I am the holder of the key

*

Once I burned from within

Tempest of fire, scorned

Interlunar traveler, old

My name is immortal

*

At the end of times passage

I cleanse the world of all of those

That are, deemed to have no soul

Breathing death’s cold stare unto them

Unto those who remain true

As I alone, a gift bestowed

Myriads, of pleasures are ingrained

Until I return to sand once more

To rise from the ash five hundred years hence…
