- Track Name: Dracocephalum
-
The beast rises
Up from the foliage dense
Reptilian flora
As if to fire spew
Amidst the serrated limbs of green
Bracts purple striate
Dragonhead
Lamiaceae
Adaxially glabrous
Smooth plantae scales
Rules its kingdom verdurous - Track Name: Invoke the Throne of Veltheimia
-
By dark botanical magic summon
A seat of winter cold
Hibernal incantation
Invoke Veltheimia’s throne
Undulating leaves below majestic umbel
Amass in frigid months
Under eternal snowfall
And icy blasts of wind
There shall I reign
Organic cathedra mighty
Formed by tubular raceme dense
Converge in chaos tangles
Seated there in solitary, sylvan authority
The world from afar I watch
From my post of entropy
Thronged by floral alliance
I await the fall of time
And the Armageddon of mankind - Track Name: Helleborus Niger
-
From ancient Antikyra
Risen from maiden tears
Magnoliopsida
Upon highest icycled peaks it grows
Flowered five-pointed star
Dark pedated leather
Evergreen
Wintery frost it weathers
Helleborus Niger
Upon wooden slats
In times immemorial
Hellebore strewn
Evil, begone
Sorceror
Adepts of darkness
Its black powder
In the air they cast
Through the world of men they moved
Undetected
Ranunculaceae
Poisonous, burning wrath
Hematemesis, vomiting blood
As the world spins uncontrollable
Helleborus Niger - Track Name: Whorl
-
Spinning verdant maelstrom
Spiraling centerfuge
Of sepal, leaf, and branch
Organic helix
Circling eternally - Track Name: Forgotten in Nepenthes
-
Nepenthes pharmakon
Peristome portal
Gate to the abyss
Down, down to oblivion
To surfeit on nectar effacing
Nor grief, nor sorrow
Nor memory retained
Forgotten
Dissolution in the void ambrosia
Eternal death - Track Name: Aldrovanda Ascendant
-
Waterwheeled whorl axes
A peduncle blizzard shielding
Cryptocotylar cotyledons
Lightning trigger the maw of death
Invertebrate yearning
Twisted outward flourished petioles
Inexorable growth
Amid the permafrost
Legion turions the fall of winter withstand
The legacy of Droseraceaea lives on - Track Name: Chaining the Catechin
-
From camellia sinensis
Forthwith it flows
Polyphenolic antioxidant
Juventas immortal
Harnessing tannin
Tied in glass chains
Chaining the catechin
Theobroma dominate
Deific sustenance - Track Name: Dionea Muscipula
-
Rosette of seven
Petiole blade lethal
Strangled in cilia
Anthocyanin death
Arachnid quarry upon fibers walk
Redundant triggering flash of demise
Trichomes close upon hapless prey
Napthoquinone plumbagin
Enzymatic end catalyzed
Proteolytic doom
In fire it laughs
As the world around it burns
Through cold strength it gathers
To rise again supreme - Track Name: Clematopsis
-
Villous striation
Sessile petiolate
Lobes in obscurity lie
Irregular dentate
Sepals open wide
Calyx almighty
Whorls converge in perianth
Crowned by corolla

-
Vast lepidote
Tree of myriad rose
And the demon Azalea
To gaze upon its lovely face
Crimson prize beckoning
Hiding death, belying doom
Labyrinthine indumentum
Deciduous limbo
Trapped within its maze of torment
Hallucinogen grave
Mirage ensnaring
Grayanotoxin
Conqueror plant
Pernicious invasion
Unsated hunger
Evermore
Evermore
Devouring all beyond its needs - Track Name: Gorechid
-
Orchidaceae swamped in gore
Bloodstained Asparagales
Dripping crimson nectar
From the mutilated corpses of the dead
Pooling amongst the mycorrhiza
Revelling in flesh
Carnal epiphyte
Aclorophyllous holoparasitical bloodlust
In slaughter triumph - Track Name: Cerbera Odollam
-
Three-headed guardian flora
Of actinomorphic corolla
In swampy marsh it grows
Foreboding harbinger of death
From its nectar, suicide
Lit aflame, its evil spreads
As it burns, murder
Poisonous smoke fills the air
Cerberin
Beating heart stopped dead
Apocynaceae
Mangrove
Those whose fruits consume
Shall cross the marshy banks
Of the river Styx
Return passage denied
By floral guardian of heads three
Forevermore - Track Name: Bromeliad
-
Seeded in air
Vertiginous foothold
Benevolent symbiosis
Of verdant alliance
Myriad iriflorence
Rosette foliage
Amidst spiked fortress
It grows
Epiphytic bromeliaceae
Tendrils of iron
Amongst ancient stone
And the moss of old
Lie in wait - Track Name: Lepidoptera
-
Winged scourge of the botanist
Lepidoptera
Swarming eyes and scaled appendages
Descend like plague on the Verdant Realm
Ravaging denizens with vicious holes
Leaving branches barren
Petals in tatters
But pollen spread
Necessary evil
Strange ally
Lepidoptera - Track Name: Euonymous in Darkness
-
In darkness, Euonymous burns
Deciduous prince
Of Celastrales lineage proud
Above, ravenous
Frugivorous raptors circle
Royal servants of propagation
Instruments of princely immortality
Their prize, valved pods of red
Beckoning amidst serrated thrones
To he who should venture within these realms, woe
Misanthrope, within princely flesh wrath
Contempt for all mankind
Sickness and plague upon those who would consume him

Compact raceme

Adorned in fanned petioles

Amongst these corridors I wander
In misanthropic mirth
Brooding deep

Up from the wasteplains
A rose from the dead
Spreading its roots farther
Strengthening hold
Biding its time
Till flora reigns supreme
One day, the turn will be theirs
Downfall of the human filth
Careless suicide, murder malign
Their end shall mark a new era
The age of the Verdant Realm
Upon the grave of mankind my flowers will grow
Tear shed only for the loss of the verdurous
Monolith marking the passing
Of an age of waste
And the arrival of a budding dawn
