I was walking through The park one noon In the very merry Month of June I was taken by surprise By a wolf with frozen eyes In the very merry Month of June

I Am But One 11:16
I am as dust That doesn’t exist I am the rain Shrouded in the mist By an ancient stream Sits a woman with braids Near my simple statue Now a river stone that fades On the other side Of the river Are satanic whores As worthy as gods And men of platted wars Bloody Viking cause I am but one of two Very old altars I am but one of two Very old sides On this side of the stream There is my statue They see me as a shaggy Man with hooves Playing the pipes But I am but one of two On the opposite side Of the stream is a symbol Made of lines It looks like my face It is the symbol of Those who carves and Worshiped me For I am but one of two

Devilmas 04:35
Let him be Oh pity him now For they are all dead With the silly on the prowl Feel for him in his loneliness The Devil’s tears her last caress He gathers the ashes to the spec And lights the flowers around her neck For the love of an angel Brighter than fire Father of all weds the Bride of the pyre Janet Cornfoot Still has the time To burn backwards Before her rhyme Beautiful child Darling boy Die die dying joy With all the pain throughout the world This wrath of mine had unfurled And send to you my silly friends A tribute to make amends

Be a Wolf 09:31
Out I did break but did I Like what I found there? The sea in my wake From out of the hold I saw the new dawn We knocked at the door Then I took up my key And let myself in Be a wolf The wolf she is ice The wolf she is cold She is down south A shape to behold Of fear and of love The wolf she is mother Upon my return I live and I die I feel it so strong I laugh and I cry Be a wolf

Is it dark is it night Where they hide from the light? Pair by pair without a moon Dance in the crimson ballroom

Seventh night out of sight Here comes the day A mask of white Devils will fly and Devils will cry in the End oh me oh my Our women run Our men see it done Others scream as the Gnomes have come I’ll tell you a tale A tale of day one Two were involved So he was but one A devil they say A devil they pray With no evil one They would all Be undone but The Gnomes have come The Gnomes have come The Gnomes have come To burn and be done Here comes the day The day we shall rest No temptation defined None put to the test The nothing that is And the nothing that Was on Victory Sunday He was the dust that Didn’t exist he was The rain shrouded In the mist by An ancient stream Sat a woman with braids Near his simple statue Now a river stone that fades The Gnomes have come The Gnomes have come The Gnomes have come To burn and be done It is said that the Ground will rent And the sky will cry A day of hell when All shall die but in The midst of this The day of the Gnome The familiars will Transgress And the witch Will have flown And devils will fly And devils will cry On Victory Sunday Don’t you ever sleep And don’t you ever weep On Victory Sunday

In a house made of clay A small family there is The man he makes Songs of sadness They bring us joy In a house in a New Town There is a man with a camera His sister cannot stay put She flies all about But will she endure to the end? Shall she die before she will? Perdurabo In my heart there is An inverted Diemen’s triangle Down there the air is like a knife There is magick and I Will endure to the end Will I endure to the end? Shall I die before I will? Perdurabo In a house made of stone Sits a man with plastic eyes Though it is cold he writes With a swastika in his heart We ran from the hive at dusk Oh Lake Pedder, We killed them all There is a man with a cat He builds ships and Cooks with steam There is a tall black man And a short black woman Their dog is the colour of snow There is a couple dressed in paint They have endured from before And the days in the North There is no magick and I could Not have endured to the end Will I endure to the end? Shall I die before I will? Perdurabo
