these are my prayers and I pour my libations to deliver to the dead a a due grave dirge tears drop upon your dark neck wet with divine sorrow in my heart there is a fighting that will not let me sleep the seed of deliverance watered by weeping help push my cries through the ground to his ghost, still clinging so closely stiff and swollen with gore blood for blood, blood-grudge fulfiller come forth and kill the killer spit their flesh through flames and molten pitch--push through the blood grudge as your killer hacked you---hack balm to the blood-grudge orgies the blood-blades are both drawn out the dead now hack down the living mouldering under a grave-mound daylight and darkness nourish your doom your gullet choked on the gore it has gulped the blood-glut clots and can't reach earths gut shackled in shame, we share the same hatred to surf over this blood-crest, Apollo cries from a deep cleft-shrine "they are the tyrants who have crushed you" my spirit feels the grudge-dogs helplessness under harsh masters up in the light is their no goat for my libations fresh blood on your hands makes you fear the Furies through black blood ooze their eyes stare the snake that came from the same womb a son in snake-scales sent as her slayer I go as a wanderer, exiled from my bloodline coming Gorgons dwell in my mind
