lyrics

In the name of El Shamayim and
the Seven suns, I see the Ziggurat
moving in the black, rotating
psalms. A Raqiya of moons.

In the name of Brahma and the
bowl of stars, I see Shiva shattering
worlds. Fire sparking like flint.
Vishnu and a firmament of stars.

In the name of Ar-Rahmān,
Ar-Rahīm, I see the Rasul cleaving
moons. Ibrahim - father of words -
preaching thunder at the first house.

In the name of The Christ, I see
the Logos illuminated on the wind.
YHWA exorcising demons at the
house of the Seventh Sun.

In the name of Krita, I see the
butchered landscape of men strewn
with pilgrims. In the name of El, the
progeny of Adamah, I invoke the name.
