Aurum MAG
In the darkest of nights, with fires burning
And desire flashing,
I shine brighter than the polished steel of
An Emperor's Sword.
Yellow gleaming God am I.
When turning in the muck of morality,
You can turn and glance beside your
Foot,
And there shall I be.
In this quest for chalices which contain
Me,
I am the sole object of his lust and
Desire.
When Aeneas sought wealth and power,
You must play watcher to him,
And look deep into the rivers.
Beneath amber and azure colored waves,
Which crown both the sky and the forge,
I lie in waiting.
For countless centuries, and hundreds of
Nights, I have remained submerged,
Entombed, forgotten ... yet still the
Desire of all I know.
Decadence is my brother, and
Avarice my son.
Forgetting them now and for a day is
The only remaining
Task.
When the sun's white light arrives upon
My flesh,
I gleam and radiate corruption,
And torment, and torture,
And greed.
I am so easily beaten and punished,
Vulcan's Hammer can render my flesh
To shaping.
So, go and join the expedition, bounce
Low for your mother and father.
I see you love me more than
They ...
I am so proud of your loyalty.
So, yoke your endurance and march to
My palace; this lode which all
Seek and lust for.
Can the fires of Hell burn my flesh?
When they do, and Lucifer loves me
More than Man,
My flesh pours in the grail you hold
Before my eyes.
In splendor and in radiance,
I have caused the death of so
Many.
Upon fortress and castle and trench
And Domain,
I am the One that he calls love.
No mortal can ever love again,
When he has cast me into his
Sword.
I have found Dawson, and the
Yukon is mine.
The south of the Dark Continent I
Have made my slave eternal.
Mayan Gods and Aztec sacrifices,
Once great after Caesar and before
The lust of Spain,
I have trampled and dazed with my
Words.
Glorious Rome, so dignified and full of
Hate ...
The walls of a city such as this I have
Maimed.
Why live your life for eating,
When your soul hungers for me?
No longer do you need your God,
For my life is longer
Than His.
So, cast away the stones, lift
Me high and mighty above your head,
And have faith in my living words.
Note: Au (aurum) is the symbol for gold on the periodic table of elements.
