Eumenides

Writer: Todd HomanTodd Homan

Hecate’s Sisters, the Horrors of Hell

Born out of Blisters at the toll of the bell

Furies so fatal, inspirers of fear

Dread Daughters of Darkness destroy all that is dear


As I walk alone through the forest of Shadow

My mind grows clear and I question what I know

All my days were spent unconcerned with others

All the horrible things I did to my brothers

Come flying back like a burning bat of fire

They are howled at me by the infernal choir


The Sisters of Sin with their hair all of snakes

Found me fast asleep in front of a lake

They crawled into my Cares through a crack in the wall

And taught me True Terror was born in the fall


As I walk alone through the pastures of the damned

And the world’s crumbling down, things didn’t go as planned

And I wish I knew, at the start of my nocturnal journey

All the things I’ve now learned from this Fantastic Fury

Things would be different now, I’d do things another way

I can’t change the past and the Furies want their play


My days have grown dreadful disturbing and dark

Their malicious arrows have found many a mark

Guilt is my gift for sins O so great

Horror is the handmaiden for all of my hate


They wail when I wake, horrible howls haunt my days

The Suicide Sisters will soon take me away

They scream in my ears, their claws scratch at my face

The Queens of despair will not forget my disgrace

They chase me and scream, curse and spit on my head

These relentless Furies will haunt me ‘til I am dead
