Ashen Ascetic

One with life
One with death
Through purity
And debauchery
Shall I reach eternity

Nothing is impure
All is saint
Through ashes and bones
I lay
On the cremation ground

Transcending all that is
Through cosmic hallucinations
Exhaling an opaque fog
To see what is unseen
From mere mortals

Through asceticism
I reach ataraxy
And embody austerity
Desire alienates

For higher self
I embrace decay
Swallowing spirits
To begin the psychoactive ritual
