Caudex of Flesh - Mortiferum

Buried deep in a vessel of filth

Perenial sleep in an ancient catacomb

Parasites revel in flesh

Spirit’s descension into a world below

Transfiguration of flesh into nonbeing

Body’s transformation into nihility

Roots tear through soil

Flesh becomes caudex

Vines wrap around the obelisk

In arborescent form, a monolithic crypt

Unearth the buried death

Malignent ascent

Roots tear through the ossuary

Caudex of flesh

Spirit’s descension from putrid remains

Charnel tranfiguration

Primeval ruins turn to dust

Frenched in fog

Dimensions of desolation

Beneath the horns of the waning moon

Your flesh has taken eternal form

In roots and soil your bones have turned to dust
