An Oath to the Tribe

By Riven Waker

"Mirrored Eyes as Night Will Arise"

I dedicate my heart
To the blackest dark art
Praising the evil Gods' names
Rapt before Hells' mighty flames

Heathen child bathed in moonlight
Benedicted in the blessings of lunacy
Hunters' eyes in the shine of starlight
Darken as the bloodlust heightens ever more

Violet blood courses through chill immortal flesh
Dedicated to eradicate the hypocrites of so-called good
By my heart's blood I avow the ascendancy of nights' creations
The new and final dark age looms like eyes glowing neath shadow of hood

Comments on "An Oath to the Tribe"

A former member wrote: I love how you take everything to a dark place. I can only really write from immense pain, people criticize it but...the most profound feelings ARE dark and painful.
A former member wrote: I like the imagery... a very strong voice bespeaks the dawning age of renewed darkness.... a worthy oath and pledge indeed. There may be some adjustment needed in the line: "Violet blood coarses through chill immortal flesh"... maybe. The Three will review and contact you with our collective decision. Thank you for sharing your vision, may that which cannot be brought to light forever call to you.
