Messenoir

The hollow growl of the gong
clears the consciousness
of the chamber
the host is presented
in white vestment throng
and nakedness makes
her rights feel so wrong
The crowd gathers round
the crowned hierophant
The psychodrama besets
when the goat begins
his unclean
outrageous rant
Defiled
is the body
and the blood
First in ritual
Then in the real
The backwards prayer
of the Underlord
The moonchild
is made from the juice
of disrespect and discord
