Shaman of the Darkest Id

Ever impenitent it seethes in a midnight pool
hidden by chains of impropriety
pondering misdeeds of demeanour
mysterious kiss the darkest id

Unbidden scourge of bestial tongue
to rise within the ink-ed dust
and sow its emotive seeds of ravenous 
simmering internal the roil of blood

Such impetuous rages of desire
slides through thought a chemical musk
feels in possessions energetic sinew
dreadful prevalence to devour

Unperturbed by those agencies of denial
lingers ever wanting Pandora relinquish
and in animal physical to cease its chances 
Stygian mystic of the id

In grey scape cloaked ambiguous
feckless angel to do thy bidding
yet on a needles point contends with conscious
and leave tranquility demented
