1. DEATH SCENT, THE CONTROL AND REMAND

Control, relapse, remiss
Follow, collapse, dismiss

Not until the scent of death
You shift your disposition
Only momentarily, because you're weak
Even in struggle, a blind eye to the scheme

Control, relapse, remiss
Follow, collapse, dismiss

Not until the stench of flesh
You grieve for a moment
Loaning a false sense of compassion
Between four walls, the stench grows on you


2. PRIMAL COMMAND

The skull brittle with traces of man's touch
Imprints of pain inflicted due to failure
An experiment gone wrong, but it is wrong from the beginning

Eye sockets, long bereft of their contents
Leading to the cavernous recesses behind
Teeth, broken from struggle and forced jawing
Blood in an accompanying vial, trophy of pride at its worst

Blood Moon showing itself
Your slumber spells your fate
Like your plunders each day
Skull reanimating with vengeance

Neck, soon plunged by dead teeth
Brains ooze from every orifice
No longer needed, body surrenders
The animal reanimate usurps your body

Dying, withering, man-made monster
Living, breathing, animal-made master


3. PRIVILEGE OR MISERY (FATESEALER)

Birth, flight, why
Would you die?

Dreams of sight
Then we writhe

I capture you
In the

Light, signs of
No life

Fly with all the
Wisdom gained
We still fail

Plucked from branches
of knowledge
Enveloped by the hands
That feed you

Cradled, hated, instead
You will feign

Bribed, with lies, for lies
To overlook

Pain, what's at stake?
Nothing but the

Inconvenience for your waning privilege

Painless


4. EMERALD DUST IN THE CREVICES AND ORIFICES OF MAN, THE MANAMORPHOSE

Traverse the Planets
Recourse those who inhabit
Reverse the false instinct
Trade their humanity in

Pollinate
Assimilate

Spreading the emerald dust
In the crevices of man's brain

Vines wrap, bones crack
Wings grow, skin erodes

Traverse the Planets
Recourse those who inhabit
Reverse the false instinct
Trade their humanity in

Pollinate
Re-integrate

Like us, you will see
What you once were to other beings
Arise and take your new form
Seek the other worlds for rebirth

Longing for jade eternal

Purveyor of emerald dust
Absorbed into the orifices of man

Apprentice of the arcane mothlords
Replenishing the dying cold worlds
Cultivation of the abused kingdoms
Preservation of the newfound wisdoms

Roots unfold
Now
Sewing the seeds in nocturnal wonder
Growing steadily

Metamorphosis of the man made hell
Exocytosis of the carnivorous cell


5. FLIGHT OF THE MOTHLORD ECLIPSE

Underneath the stars
Moving through the trees
Observing all, but unseen
Preparing for the cleansing

Wings spread

Gathering the eclipse of arcane lords
Cryptic colors emerge from the foliage

Larval hope, worlds without hosts
Nectaring what's left
Like Osiris preventing death

Dominions of gardens
Transcendence of famine

Erosion reversed
Succulents surge
Take heed, a familiar foe emerges
Presented under sunlight
The thorn of the kingdoms
The horn of true evil

Carnivore,
Planetary abhorrer
Horror incarnate
Life's hypocrite

Sequester Man for his flesh
Species war but without death
Unlike your breadth
Of abuse and mindlessness
