Plays to Solstice

"There's no point in doing something, unless it satisfies a passion."

A Song of a love in Darkness. Is all
A love severed... In
Taunts of premeditated aguish.

A Thought of seductive demise
A love which finally claimed its victim
The wind proclaims the scent of her death

A Play to the Solstice of Light!
A love that invokes the most darkest of passions
The Ecstasy, The Hunt of Vampires by night.

A Dream of soft voices singing, of
A love in Darkness's sombre caress
And so we are, in the pale Moon's light -
with thoughts of a nemesis now slain...

Hear the despondent Angels sing of our love,
And of our passion,
Laced with Blood.




The Darker Verses
(a Play to Solstice)

"Nocturnal Supremacy.."

A ritual of love in Darkness. For mine is
A hatred long nurtured in thee
Ecstatic screams of a tormented soul... (Hosanna in excelsis!)

A vision of sombre, dream-like dance
A hatred fused in powerful rhythm
Black candles flicker in the quietus -

A play to the Solstice of Life!
A hatred that is the most dark of passions
Sensual embraces in a misty Night's Shadow.
A lament to cold immortality
A love set free by morbid desire
And so we are one -

utter possession, tribute Hecate's cold grace...
Hear the sweet songs of mortals, their
Soft serenade to eternal subservience
Drowning their sorrow in Sanguine tears.




The Play to Death
(a final Play to Solstice)

"And only in death, can one find peace.."

A journey towards the waking Darkness
A death who consumes
Through Kisses in Blood (of incessant love)

A deprivation of sensibilities at the hands of quintessential evil...
A death with throes unheard
Melodious lust, (a triumphant seer) -

A play to Solstice: that is Death
A Silence that becomes the most darkest of passions
Serene beauty shining from lifeless tranquillity

The chill of a frozen twilight
The Scarlet sky of slaughtered Angels
filled with a delightful Fog -

and the entrails of an immolated God...

To the Darker Plays to Solstice, I offer
The Darker extremes of a life long lost.
Darkness...(Life now stolen)
