Listen to the words of the Dark God, who was of old called Lakchos, Donn, Annubis, Hades, Setesh, Hoder, and by many other names:
I am the shadow in the bright day;
I am the reminder of mortality at the height of living.
I am the never ending veil of Night where the Star Goddess dances.
I am the Death that must be so that Life may continue,
For behold, Life is immortal because the living must die.
I am the strength that protects, that limits;
I am the power that says No, and no further, and that is enough.
I am the things that cannot be spoken of,
And I am the laughter at the edge of death.
Come with me into the warm enfolding dark;
Feel my caress in the hands, in the mouth,
In the body of the one you love, and be transformed.
Gather in the moonless night and speak in unknown tongues;
The Dark Mother and I will listen.
Sing to us and cry out,
And the power will be yours to weild
Blow me a kiss when the sky is dark,
And I will smile, but no kiss return,
For my kiss is the final one for all mortal flesh.
