Desecration - Latrunculus Violati

"Here Lies----- Rotting to the thrill of doom Seized by Cold Death And Buried face-down." -Inscription on Tombstone- "Decaying to the drips of chilled nature And discontented by the state of my casket- For it had so suddenly begun to decompose- and by such nature my pathos be exposed- That scraping sound seized my attention And for once I deemed my hearing amplified To the vile exploits of cemetery maggots- For these fervid beasts are as fateful as Death. Then I thought: "Here they come alas! To waste to putrefaction my soulless mass By their lethal kisses and passive seductions- Slimy monsters who yet perturb nature's ruling. Then I perceived violent falls, Vibrations from quakes aloft That for certainty's cursed sake I hushed to but discern if The unruly devil had come at last." (unfinished)
