Dead Cthulhu waits dreaming
Some terror in the swishing grass
Was added to the sound of the pounding sea
And I started up crying aloud and disjointedly -
"Tiger! Tiger!"
Some terror drifted in betwixt the folding arms of cryptic night
Some terror scratched beneath the floorboards of that foetid rented room
Behold! Star-wind. Madness. Suffering. Great Old One
Some terror took me in its breast beneath the looming gibbous moon
Some terror led me to a blackness darker than the sea
“Now flee!”
"The end is near. I hear a noise at the door, as if some immense slippery body
Lumbering against it. It shall not find me! That hand! The window! "
They are cutting a window
Here on this placid isle
Black seas of infinity
Cruel is the universe
Tending to disarray
Ending in deeper sleep
When the stars are right...
We will call Him!
We will call Him from His deep dream
“Hark! He rises…”
In his house at R'lyeh Dead Cthulhu waits dreaming Some terror in the swishing grass Was added to the sound of the pounding sea And I started up crying aloud and disjointedly - "Tiger! Tiger!" Some terror drifted in betwixt the folding arms of cryptic night Some terror scratched beneath the floorboards of that foetid rented room Behold! Star-wind. Madness. Suffering. Great Old One Some terror took me in its breast beneath the looming gibbous moon Some terror led me to a blackness darker than the sea “Now flee!” "The end is near. I hear a noise at the door, as if some immense slippery body Lumbering against it. It shall not find me! That hand! The window! " They are cutting a window Here on this placid isle Black seas of infinity Cruel is the universe Tending to disarray Ending in deeper sleep When the stars are right... We will call Him!
