The Charge of The Dark Lord (author unknown)
HPS: Hear the words of the Dark Lord, He who of old was also called among men, Anubis, Hades, Arawn, Pluto, Sutekh, Charon, And by Many other names
HP:
I am the Shadow of the bright day;
I am the reminder of mortality in the height of living.
I am the never ending veil where the Star Goddess dances.
I am the Death that MUST be so that life may continue, for behold;
Life is immortal for the living must die.
I am the Strength that protects, that limits;
I am the Power that says no and no further, and that is enough.
I am the things that cannot be spoken of,
And I am the Laughter at the edge of Death.
Come with me into the warm enfolding dark;
feel my caress in the hands, in the mouth,
in the body of the one you love and be transformed.
Gather in moonless night and speak in unknown tongues;
The Goddess and I will listen.
Sing to us and cry out
and the Power will be yours to wield.
Blow me a kiss when the sky is dark and I will smile,
But no kiss will be return'd;
For my kiss is the Final One for all mortal flesh.
