Drive deep your eye into the shifting streams of Luna
Thrust your gaze through her hymen and into Death
About the scattered ruins of overcrowded phantasms
Whose writhes echo the lives that they shed

The Abyss speaks if you dare to listen
It howls when the Moon is drowned in Night
And a step from an unmarked grave is taken
And memory slips out of shape - out of sight

" Death slips between sentence
Madness slips through sense
Non Sense slips into Sentience
Absence seeks senseless Self "

There you shall dissect your heart
To find the room by human gods unseen
Where the will to life flows inverted
Into the great sleep of all our dreams

Throw the coin into the ancient waters
Where heads and tails are evened out
And the cogwheels rust in weary stutter
At the cenotaph of doubt
May your eyeglobes fall ever backwards
May you swallow your own tongue
Immerse the dream, dip the song, drench the kiss
In Layla's deathblack wine
Oh the wild waves that drift sublime
Out of face - out of mind
Out of reason - out of rhyme

Can you gaze any deeper?
Into the cold depths where your flaming vision once fell
Then know once for all
That it as but the Abyss that gazed into itself
