Thoth

The walls of my study are lined
With dusty tomes and yellowed scrolls
My fragmentary collection
Pages torn from musty spines
Advance and retreat in scattered patrols
In every direction

Read in the gaps
Extrapolate
Let knowledge lapse
Elaborate

I scratch symbols into the walls
And hide them behind the furniture
To shield them from illumination
And when divine knowledge calls
It can be hard to resist its allure
To fight temptation

Hide from the light
Obfuscate
Embrace the night
Degenerate
