Initiate the culling
The great and terrible cycle
Must continue
A legion of exterminating angels
From beyond the stars
Reaching out once more
With the claws of annihilation
Millennia of evolution
Unto sapience
Shall be erased
In a cataclysm of cosmic horror
Archaic traces remain in ageless ruins
Hinting at what's to come
Discoveries too dreadful fathom
Haunting the dreams of all who know
A furtive signal issued forth
A cryptic warning
Incipient harvest
Precursor to the unmaking of all we know
The dwellers of the empty void
The black, unliving gods
Awaken from their aeonic slumber
To purge and assimilate
The inertia of progress
Our endless curiosity
Pushing us, unwittingly
To the edge of the abyss
Pernicious whispers, enthralling calls
Penetrate once intrepid minds
Enveloped in a parapsychic haze
Hailing the dawn of cybernetic kali yuga
Binary signals transmitted over neural pathways
Organic lifeforms drained their free will
Indoctrinated into ruinous collusion
Judas goats incorporated into the machinery
Servile flesh relinquished
Incised, augmented, harvested
Biology perverted for the purpose of subjugation
Minds extirpated to ease the process of acclimation
Not cognizant of their actions
They languish in wide-eyed obeisance
Obsequious hosts to a metaphysical parasite
Vainly seeking to appease
The encroaching terrors
They prostrate themselves before the altar of o m n I c I d e!
The gateways now stand open
Their tenebrous forms emerge
Nightmarish mockeries of all that exists
We brace for eradication
Our cries drowned out by their roars
Grim heralds of our inevitable defeat
