Anoint. Alight. Align.   The Mind says, 'I am not of the Body. When the Body ceases, I will be set free. I direct the Shell to move.'   The Soul says, 'I am not of the Body. When Death comes, I shall reunite with the Void. I am the Engine of the Vessel.'   The Spirit says, 'I am not of the Body. If I die, there is no longer reason to Exist. I am the fuel that fills the Form and gives it Power.'   The Body says, 'It is only through Me that you are realized. I am that which makes you known. Without Me, you have no Home.'   The Fire says, 'I am your Master. I govern you all as Passions. The Body melts at my touch. The Spirit burns at ignition. The Soul ashes at recession. The Mind an inferno at my stoking.'      Crippled - Salvaged - Assimilated   Asphyxia - Deluge - Collapse      Mechanism exposed   In atrophy   Slime - Corruption - Filth      Polyphonic choking   Stifled   One ultimate prayer   For cessation      Our enigma of destination   A defined void   Thy mechanism plagued   Corporeal casket   In bloom   Relentless sacrifice   Thy ritualized absorbing cloak   Sterile devices of castrated passion   The airing of soiled, stained vestments   The preparation of thy temple   Sanctify thy altar   And tarry...      The lesser arrive   Pretenders   To fortify ego   To devour and prolong   Suffering upon   The traveler   The adept      His existence to illuminate   Yet thy ignorance manifest   Insight denied      Formulae turns immortal   Yet again denied   Delusion versus wisdom   Wisdom versus defeat      Build thy solar temple   Radiate thy measures   In failure of scheme   In favor of purity      Shine!      Anoint.
