The Corruption

By Diabolical Incantations

Creeping tendrils
meandering through the mire
relentlessly spreading the infection
feeding off hate, pain, torment, and fear

The slinking umbral tentacles
extending ever more
ensnaring lives and twisting thoughts
corrupting all that came before

A host of mindless, soulless beasts
controlled by mother brain
unleashed to enslave the weak and foolish
and they will drive the rest insane

The corruption never ends
it will spread its disease again and again
destroying our will and bleeding us dry
feeding off hate, pain, torment, and fear
