Free Salamander Exhibit - Oxen of the Sun

The voices blend and fuse in clouded silence
Grey twilight ever descends, never falls
Shedding her dusk
Scattering stars
Scattering stars
She follows her mother with ungainly steps
Meek apprehensive skull
They fade, sad fantoms all
All is gone
Agendath is a wasteland
A home of screech owls and the sandblind
The sandblind
Netaim the golden is no more
On the highway of the clouds they come
Muttering thunder of rebellion
The ghosts of beasts
The ghosts of beasts
Huuh! Hark (Hawk)! Huuh!
Parallax stalks behind
And goads them
The lancinating lightnings of whose brow are scorpions
Elk and yak,
The bulls of Bashon and Babylon,
Mammoth and mastodon,
They come trooping to the sunken sea
The sunken sea
Lacus Mortis
Lacus Mortis
Lacus Mortis
Lacus Mortis
Ominous, revengeful,
Zodiacal host
Onward to the dead sea
They tramp to drink,
Unslaked and with horrible gulpings,
The salt
The salt somnolent ineuxhaustible flood
Murderers of the sun
They moan, passing upon the clouds
Horned and capricorned
The trumpeted with the tusked
The lion-maned and giant-antlered
Snouter and crawler
Rodent, ruminant, pachyderm
All their moving moaning multitude
Murderers of the sun
Murderers of the sun
They moan, passing upon the clouds
Horned and capricorned
The trumpeted with the tusked
The lion-maned and giant-antlered
Snouter and crawler
Rodent, ruminant, pachyderm
All their moving moaning multitude
Murderers of the sun
Murderers of the sun
The voices blend and fuse in clouded silence
Grey twilight ever descends, never
Never falls
Shedding her dusk
Scattering stars
Scattering stars
The equine portent grows again
Magnified in the deserted heavens
Scattering stars
On the highway of the clouds they come
Muttering thunder of rebellion
The ghosts of beasts
