Astrolatry
Dione
Concept of chemistry Combining geometric form, separating the rays Four elements, killed by the sword, hunger, blood Beyond good and evil stands the lord of cosmopathic dawn Inaction and peace Servants of destiny, guardians of fallen stars Look at the regiments from human thoughts! Humiliated by normality, humiliated by inner selves! We, the blackest of the black, are sailing into the kingdom of night! Battle-scarred, wounded, inflicted with sanity! Praising the name of almighty Saturn, praising the almighty deities! Astrolatry! Fire, ice, water, earth! Astrolatry! Four elements set in one! Astrolatry! Convulsing energy! Astrolatry! Let there be light! We rise as a comet, back and forth Wandering, lurking in time Our cosmos hails from the depths of itself

Black Discord
Dione
There was no life in your tears, No death in mere mind No sin, no grace and trace of love Flawless, uncoordinated crop All howling voids, noise and shades Thirsting for salvation, Thirsting for all deflation! Hydrocarbons absorbing starry dust and space Radiation fields, Soil of the dead who met their end Spirals, dread, hope Admire desire of choir and God! Blaze and star, deathlike place, ice and gate Destruction, abduction of cosmos state! Spirals, dread, hope Admire desire of choir and God! Of the deceased...

Prometheus, Thou Absorbing the Starlight
Dione
Burn to the ground! Open no hope as you leave your lightest road of Promethean fire and flesh! Aware, among the darkness, between the stars As you go away, sinking towards damnation (burnt by The Sun!) Blinded by the light of Saturn Damned you go (forevermore!) Eaten by the earth Eternity... Primordial awe... Lost in chains Close your eyes, in stars between, beyond the leper ones Lost in air, sorrow and fear Soul that was broken Caressed, framed, again! (Again!) South to the moon, north to the sun! The spirits soon will be gone! The spirits soon will be gone!

Project Zero
Dione
Ida, moved in rapture to twirl! Ersa, circling above the fusion! Kari, cryovolcanoes weep! Magmatic fluids, basaltic, viral composition Inside the cracks - vapor, carbon, sulfur Defining the planets' core Exploring what is yet unknown Gigantic domes, unseen spheres and stars Denser space, denser void Surrounded by silence Defining the planets' core Dead, dead, dead, dead!

Hesperia Planum
Dione
Mars! Your holy light glows with the power of years! Fossilized highlands, northern solstice! Living in cycle, under the moons! Crushing Hesperian, crushing the time! Shallow crater, flat-lying dream Demanding foe of Eon Grasping the air, micro dioxide The cryosphere! I am the Bringer! I am the Taker! I am the kingdom! I am God!

Lament of the Forgotten
Dione
Divide! When, in disgrace with fortune and men’s eyes, I all alone beweep my outcast state, And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries, And look upon myself, and curse my fate, Wishing me like to one more rich in hope, Featur’d like him, like him with friends possess’d, Desiring this man’s art and that man’s scope, With what I most enjoy contented least; Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising, Haply I think on thee, and then my state, Like to the lark at break of day arising

Solar Apex (The Visceral Ode to Beta Herculis)

Contemplating Space and the Pearllike Miasma
Dione
Left and torn in solitude Exhausted, debased, lying on the ground Submerged in a thicket of wet grass, I look at the sky "Is this the result, the final taste of defying abrasive lie?" Astra Planeta! Astra Planeta! Phainon, Phaetheon, Pyroeis, Eosphoros, Stilbon! Gods, hear my cries! Intense wounds Lights calling my name Star to star, radiant scar The sign of wrath There is a flame untamed All the way to the horizon Will to live, carrying the weight of death Phainon, Phaetheon, Pyroeis, Eosphoros, Stilbon! Gods, hear my cries! Surrounded by triad From the limbo of hopelessness To the blazing warmth of angels We rise as a comet, back and forth Wandering, lurking in time
