Yearning for a home, Mexica mercenaries.
Culhua stood no chance
Until crushing quauhololli came through,
Earning repute, dripping in serpent’s dew
Achitometl! We request your daughter,
Her beauty is renown as is the honor of her father
The sovereign wife of Huitzilopchtli next,
Soon to be sacrifice to Xipe Totec
The sovereign wife of Huitzilopchtli next,
Soon to be sacrifice to Xipe Totec
Darkness inside, light the torch
Her skin fitted on a priest, flayed and torn
Blood drips from her feet onto the cold stone,
Xipe Totec, ripping flesh from bone.

Subcutaneous Literation

Hearts beat, flesh speaks.
Visions fade as the body leaks.
A world of flame with souls long dead.
Linguistic mastication,
subcutaneous literation.
They're writing stories on my skin.
Borne of madness, raised in mud.
Here is written the Book of Blood.
Connecting the dots, from pore to pore.
Collecting what's not alive anymore.
Even the blind can read these stories.
