The Necromancer Lies

The Nepalese ambassador
Sat amid alabaster
In the hall of Genghis Bright
His manner almost certainly
Needed someone matronly
About nine o'clock that night

I give you more than broken snow
Rotted spear and broken bow
I give you more than the rivers
But badly still his future lay
As bloodshot eyes came with reply
You offer hollow empire

The secret of cool rivers
Is spreading in the summer
In timeless, voidless slumber
The necromancer lies

It pressures more than meaning
To arrive at the beginning
And see it for the first time

The atmosphere of Neptune
Is where they'll send their poltroons
With perfect unwashed conscience
They'll float just like a fly

And every mother owes them
And every daughter loves them
They're like a sacred coven
A beachscape in the sky

The Necromancer Lies
