Yex 16 Posted September 7, 2017 (edited) Preliminary Invocation of Spider-Wasp Spider-Wasp, Child of Mars born under Sothis-Star There's no peace when danger roams Take up arms, protect your home Sky is White with smoke and ash White as war, White as Death Spider-Wasp, Child of Mars pierce your prey with poison barbs Earth screams out in desperate pain lashes out with fire and rain Invoking hatred's evil names wicked men stoke the flame Spider-Wasp, deliver me Adonai, part the sea Grandmothers' ancient wombs weave upon a nobler loom Seeds eternal ever bloom Hope persists beyond the tomb But lest the darkness make me lost Thee I invoke, Spider-Wasp Edited September 7, 2017 by Yex 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
