Cain is great
O Cain is good!
Join our ancient Brotherhood
Elder Nimrod hunts with might
Pursues his prey til break of night
Aye, and further still!
As Judas, traitor, weeps beneath the hill.
Pilate scorns, betraying guiltless blood
Felix trembles, quivering on the sod
Is he buried yet?
It’s been two thousand years agone
Since Felix wept, and Festus mocked
And the Whore of Babylon lay quivering at the dock
With all her Empire’s treasures lost at sea
Light a candle for Jezebel
Godspeed thee,
Ahab’s grand dark resplendent Queen!
