Immersion

I welcome to absu, enveloped in its embrace

I can see the cavern ceiling

Illuminated by stars miles beneath the Earth

Looking up I see the beyond

Cosmos appears on stone altar

Unlike anything else on putrid planet

Fixated I can see the terrors beyond this deep

And they become my new figures of worship

Faces of the mind become reality

And order cast aside in mockery

They hear this call

The stars transform to eyes staring down their devotee

Testing this faith

I extend my hand

Total soul immersion

Total life absorption

Swallowed

Here I am free
