You fall before your idols and say you kneel to pray Arms spread wide in all idleness we watch you sway Comforted in winds of petty wickedness you wish to hide From yourself, from your kind, from even lower forms of life As from your divided divine But who art thou, lurking in the dark of the night Stumbles upon my most secret thoughts Pray to your gods to fall prey Pray to your rulers and fall prey Pray to your gods to fall prey Prey of your rulers' fallen prayer So they spake the authades antitheoi They Prince of all Satans fell through pride Through concupiscence fell Archons in the first apocalypse of might Eve the third wife of Adam victimised for Creator's brutalising seed Outwitted Adam the foolish man of his raped wife through Disobedience of the meek But who art thou, lurking in the dark of the night Stumbles upon my most secret thoughts Pray to your gods to fall prey Pray to your rulers and fall prey Pray to your gods to fall prey Prey of your rulers' fallen prayer "High on the throne of a royal state Which far outshone the wealth Of Omuszd and of Ind Satan exalted sat."
