The Black Smoke - Krypts

Black smoke — revealing fire

Rising from ceremonial pyre

Congregation of coals and ash

Death’s breath shrouding over chanting mass

Baptism of black smoke

Burning air reeks purification

Inflated lungs exhaust

Unearthly trance, agonising spasms

Engulfing revelation

Cloaked in its black uterus

Iron gushes from the eyes

Eyes which can finally see…
