Send in your petulant dog

Sullen, sworn, and suffering

Deference, an end in itself

Solemn, servile, and sacred

"You are ruin made flesh"

Groans - guttural

Maws - gnashing

"And I shall be yours in turn"

Grotesque, garish and, gruesome

Gatekeeper...Gatekeeper

"So Why hast thou a key, oh vagrant?

See thy lock doth grant passage..."

Haggard, harrowed, and haunted

Draw blood, lest death make resolution

No hearth, home, or haven

Grotesque, garish and, gruesome

Haggard, harrowed, and haunted
