Below the Horizon He Stalks - Drowning the Light

Injecting venom into the stream

where the well thinking pigs drink

As a serpent coiled around its prey

Filling the blood stream with deathly toxin

Tightening, restricting as the veins blacken

Yet entranced by Apeps eyes

To swallow the river of life

and to bring chaos and strife

Just below the horizon he stalks

Waiting at dusk his whispers forked

Then come dawn to strike the sun again

Encircling the world in an eternal flame

And in the end, our destiny like scales to be shed

As the tail is released and we fall towards oblivion

The light dies as worlds collide enraptured by the forbidden

As the tale is told the strong crawl out from the darkest hole

The serpent once again locks its jaws regeneration to behold
