Blackness surges toward
the secret that lay ahead,
rugged, dark, filled with
fire and poison, crystal
shrines evidence of
a path
ascending
descending
toward judgment.
Fortification, crowned with
sapphire heavens that
gracefully float toward a
path of great ascension or
deep dissension, granite
demons watch throughout
the long burning day, night
brought speechless shapes
under the moon.
Countless colored hues
infused with the winds, a
strange symphony, a cry in
the blackness that veiled
over ebbing life, then a cold
pallid light surrounded by
the crimson bellows of hell.
“You have arrived”.

Very powerful imagery…dark…very awesome!!! I’d love to point out one specific line that I like, but there are too many. “a cry in the blackness that veiled over ebbing life” maybe my favourite line, but, very hard to pick.
