Christ of the Blackheart

By Riven Waker

A universe entombed
The final bloodlines' singularity
Locked in proto-embryonic synthesis

The annihilative pronounced
The culture seethes onward
Life given here is but a phantasm

This arena this world this life
The corporeal gambit revealed
They will taste the ether and love it

All of the celestial powers aligned
In metastasis beyond absolution

Tis this pearls' clarion chime
Succumbs this endless fortnight
Howl of six billion empty graves
Exhumed
Endless emptiness
Entombed
Christ of the Blackheart
Engendered in
Her womb
