Demonic Transmogrifications
by Robert Paul Gass
1:1
The sun in Aries begets kingdom from knot,
Chaos twisted over den of hellfire's light,
Forming beam between two points, radial shot
Through prism to triangle, shining from height.
As ganglionic masses, stars obtain
Fleshly spirit, casting off shells, shedding
Putrefaction, tethered in twine with stain
And Chaos spews anarchic seed, descending.
Gaia's diameter spins, forming sphere
For Uranus, expanding against limit,
To drink milk of her breasts, becoming seer,
Foreseeing foreordained fate, pyre ever lit.
Self aware and doomed, he prepares for the end,
Fathering eighteen children, Gaia's bane
And he needs more, but weary of birth, bend
Occurs in mother, calling for sons to reign.
Cronus answers her summoning and takes
A golden sickle, to sever father's lust,
Ascending nascent from abyssal lakes,
To neuter the dam, releasing blood to dust.
Blood floods the earth, fertilizing the dirt,
Generating offspring thick with matter,
The Erinyes, Nymphs, and Giants that spurt
From crevice volcanic, raising disaster.
Uranus assumes appelation, wicked,
Of Belial from Chaos as devoid
And Gaia with Eros forms contending head
Of Thomiel from Chaos as void.
