The Sattari. Eve's Soldiers.


Press play before reading.
Salute.



(A lone voice whispers)


Deep in Blackwood Forest 

At the third stroke of midnight 


If you're brave enough 

and want to see 


A rare sight 


To see a silver ritual chalice raised 

As dirty country music plays       


See Masters of Temple 

Stand in hot circles of fire 


As people in masks 

Watch 


As they sweat and perspire

            

The summoning from the 7th Seal 

Of the biblical maiden 


Who helped usher in 

The Ultimate Sin


From The Great In-Between


Invoked 

To make all kneel     

As she is seen                        


Do want to see flames dance like two twin lovers  


Locked in romance         

Into the immortal night     


Be bound in bondage 

To Eve


And that circle in Blackwood 


When found  

Without fight


Just meditate     


Visualize a dark forest 

And imagine yourself there 


As your fate 


And 

In your holy dreams 

When it's late


I'll send the Sattari 


With a gentle call   

Into the light 


Of 


Dabis animam Evam in aeternum?


To bring you 

To your last-ever party 


In Blackwood Forest 

Tonight
