1. Black To The Blind
["Black to the blind" is a quotation from "BOOK OF THE LAW" (LIBER AL vel]
[LEGIS), written down by A. Crowley. Years later he commented it thus: "The]
[uninitiated perceive only darkness in night: the wise perceive the golden]
[stars in the vault of azure." The same can be said of us, worshipping the]
[Goddess in the true riteless ceremony of existence.]
Black to the blind is She above
and black to the blind we seem to be
god-fearing sheep will never perceive
the embodiment of the lust divine
Nothingness thickens and bends down
a new creation taking its primal breath
this world's eternity vacuum unfolds
dissolution of things stiff and dead
Black to the blind
Starry transocean of Goddess' womb
pleasures landscapes and drops of pain
from vulva furnace in gracious trance
dark theology explained in light
Trample the temple of gods aborted
body denial, servile renouncement
turn your eyes inward and chant
unto the Gate of self-born None
Black to the blind
Heresy of the most superior kind
to all of you I preach clearly now
let no rapture be out of reach
death is easy, life means extasy
Black to the blind seems She Above
blue and gold is seen to the seeing
intoxicate the inner expressions
to keep the eyes aware and vigilant
Black to the blind is She above
and black to the blind we seem to be
god-fearing sheep will never perceive
the embodiment of the lust divine
Trample the temple of gods aborted
body denial, servile renouncement
turn your eyes inward and chant
unto the Gate of self-born None
Black to the blind
2. Carnal
[The person of Austin Osman Spare (1888-1956) is a splendid example of]
[misunderstood and forgotten genius. Deserving the fame of Beardsley, he is now]
[almost unknown outside the occult scene. Trained in ceremonial magic under A.]
[Crowley, he later created his own ZOS KIA CULTUS, which can be called "urban]
[shamanism". The famous sigilization, some Chaos Magick principles, etc. bear]
[his influence. Besides many breath-taking art pieces of painting he left]
[several books where the passion of Blake meets Nietzsche's harshness.]
I tasted the fever of Your existence
seems like cold grain to my mouth
I stand aside, I stay away
transmuting my quicksilver blood
KIA - that I may see
ZOS - that I may touch
insipid are the describing words
the self needs no vulgar praise
This worship has no supplications
my rite is to live and do
things naked, pure, of honest lust
the throbbing vortex feeds on it all
Sleep is the best of possible prayers
the winged eyes are blessed to see
downtrodden deception of every torment
transpierced hymens my lust adores
Many images yet one raw flesh
animal steps I love to tread
an ideal point where Time is Space
memory giant sores this journey must heal
Lady of Mourning and her monsters
lay down the scythes for here I come
joyful and priapic my baby soul
a new-born one, ten million years old
