Second In Command (1992)

You gotta love spontaneity. The best stuff comes out at the most unusual times. Like Ronnie James Dio writing lyrics, all medieval-based; but 90% of the time, written while watching sports. Huh?! Second In Command came to mind while watching one of the “Nightmare On Elm Street” installments. The part where they were going over the history surrounding his birth. Specifically, the rape of his mother, a nun, by 10,000 maniacs, at an insane asylum at which she worked. Evil personified.

Second In Command
1992

The priests aimlessly walk
Yet with purpose
A destination to unknown
Eyes affix on the elders
A door bears the mark
Chaos and disorder reign
Time is of no relevance
Doors stretch into position
Screams echo through the corridors
Fear permeates the open space
The entity sits in judgment
Darkness abounds with words unspoken
Forces accumulate from within
Lightning strikes, the sky blackens
The soul from the present drifts
A destination to unforeseen
Wreaking havoc on those unknowing
Seeking the power to uncreate
All that remains will descend.
