Ways of the Weredevil Priests

In semi-darkness they are born
Announced in supernatural cuneiform
Lak-e-m'ayne, a weredevil priest
Faces west then turns his head east
To pray as the Old Ones did

Dreaming and dead, their sons are thorns
Christened by Erowid and livid with scorn
Dun-vo-liath, a weredevil priest
Writes a DNA roadmap to the feast
To tout eugenics as the Old Ones did

You can't be thrilled in space, they say
And the eggs are as dry as a bone
In weredevil ways we cling to this earth
Our territory staked no matter its worth
To praise repetition as the Old Ones did

And all your stone-dead palaces taken
Crumbled to stud paths in putrid gardens
Sha-an-fey, a weredevil priest
Oversees the grinding of another culture's things
To plot a way to the end as the Old Ones did
