The Fire

I am God and there is no other God beside me.

With all awakened there is illumination

My light had mixed with the darkness;
It caused the darkness to shine in beauty and strength It is the fire of life, yet my breath gave it smoke

This blackened fire was hidden from all who were blind of the mind

Yet could be clearly seen by those accustomed to seeing in darkness

Just as my names are many, so are my forms and faces I went forth to Seven Seraphs
I took pleasing shape and went to them as friend
I shared my fire with them

My illumination came through them and they were awake This is the same as through you
Those who are intolerant are but fearing sheep, Awaiting the jaws of the wolf
Love not the enemy of wisdom and knowledge, By a chain they will bind you

Fire is that which consumes is but everything

My face flashes with fire and burns with immortal life

In the Empyrean realm it was the brightest

In my terrible countenance the ignorant fled

As bleeding sheep before wolf-like jaws

My appearance was defiled with blood

As I sought to consume and devour

As the lower divinity fell before my hate

I tasted their essence and life, this is my secret path

I filled others with darkness which led them to know their minds

There was peace in fulfilling this hunger, yet I was covered in blood

I went forth again to mankind, awakening in any form I wished.

As Archon, my illumination is unmatched as I question everything

It is that which I have done so the spirit and mind do not forget

That I put my essence in 7 places,
That my own angels are in six
This may be found within
It is a secret place where darkness is comfort Know that my names are many

For I am the enemy to the fearful, one-sided and close- minded
Evil to them is what they cannot understand

In the clouds do I dwell, in spirit and dream, in the nightmare and the eye of the mind

In the tumult of chaos in your mind do I rise up
A mighty angel to be wise and lead man and woman To know my kingdom is to find it within
When it is found within it will be found outside Know thyself and you may find my kingdom
