From soil and filth and death we rose
One eve to feast under the moon
Lurk in decay with flesh necrose
Take caution, you are not immune
We are merciless, unceasing
From soil and filth and death we rose
Time ticks, our hunger increasing
Ever more as we decompose
Your eyes, your ears, your mouth, your nose
No quenching of our appetite
From soil and filth and death we rose
On this hallowed Halloween night
We hunt you in the street, your bed
As we reach out from the shadows
You’ll lose your mind before your head
From soil and filth and death we rose

Avalanche
Avalanched blizzards' cold dustings
envelope:
forests, gulleys, hillsides--
intentionally juxtaposing life...
making necrose obstacles
painstakingly quiver,
releasing Snow!
Tons!
Ubiquitous vagabond-wielding
Xenophobics'... Yielding Zone!
