Temples of Fire

beauty for ashes
 in a deep forest of granduer
 nestled in a hollow grove
 voices coming from the Elms
 with painted pictures of light & love
 walk with me through the forest
 visit the habitation of hunters and gatherers
 beneath the ground twigs wretched sticks
 nature is playing a new game of tricks
 in the middle there is a spot
 for we go there to think a lot
 volumes of skulls line the perimeter
 inside is a temple of fire
 blown away with its fullest desire
 deeper we go and bask in the vast array of the under ground
 leaches with blind moles digging holes
 the new cult comes into its vast domain
 along with the Satanism, sorrow & pain
 this is the forbidden sod
 naked tortured remnants of lost souls in sore travail
 blackened death stench of night breathing deadly asps
 the weeping, wailing & gnashing of teeth
 creatures with mouths filled with fire
 heads turned upside down in the formation of midnight torment
 still we traveled further to discover
 a jewel with wretched shades of red, black & grey
 on display throughout the forest
 demons torturing its victims over and over again
 Satan laughing spreads his wings
 the nest thing I awaoke to what ?
