The Entrance to Gehenna 

Behold the horned one, dread lord of death and ressurection 
Guardian of the underworld, transcend hell to ride with thee 
Reborn, one must die and to die one must be born 
Nothing remains without change 
Holy grail of immortality upon black winds 
Our banners flow free 
Grasp hilt of steel at sight  our enemy 
We ride as one, the twin horse chariot followers of the bell 
Guiding our swords 
Vultures circling, waiting for the dead 
Thou who at noon of night doth reigns 
Howling ghouls at the gates 
Hail, our time hath come 
Released horde of the dead, led by choir of the cross 
Let our magic come to birth... 

The Dark Tower of Mordor 

The towers tremble to the tombs of kings 
Doom approaches, the dead awake for the hour has come 
For the oathbreakers at the stone of erech 
We shall stand again when the black breath blows and death's shadow grows 
And all that is passed come! 
Athelas life to the dying 
In the kings hands lying 
Mighty were the fallen 
War now calls 

Orodruin mountain of fire 
Mount doom and it's red nightfall 
Tower of Cirith Ungol 

Alone here at journey's end I lie in darkness 
Buried deep beyond all towers strong and high 
Beyond a;; mountains steep above all shadows rides the sun 
And stars, forever dwell 
I will not say the day is done 
Nor bid the stars farewell... 

(inspired by, and dedicated to, master storyteller  J.R.R Tolkein) 

Garden of Solitude Beyond 

Ascend beyond the sun, soul of infinite space 
Before whom time is ashamed and understanding 
Dark, through thou art afar thy rays are on the earth 
Your tears fall for the dead 
I withdraw into the sky 
Soul hidden in time, marvelous seed of the stars 
The downwind and sunset cloud beyond the first 
Clouded glow of the rising moon 
Walk among the ancient trees 
Garden of solitude emerging from the shadows 
From where we had lurked so long 
Appreciate beauty of the flame at this mystic hour
