This popped into my head whilst mowing the lawn over the weekend… No idea why. It’s fairly seasonal tho.
\n
\nCome cower at the story of a black goat name of Shub
\nHer thousands of young kept her scrambling for grub
\nThen one day, well whad’ya think bud?
\nDown from the sky came a rainin’ of blood.
\n(End times that is. Hemoglobin, Type ‘O’)<\/p>\n
Well the first thing you know, old Shub’s an Elder Thing
\nDeckin’ out her temples with Lovecraftian ‘bling’
\nBut off in the ocean was where she oughta be,
\nSo she loaded up the kiddies and they moved to R’lyeh
\n(Sunken isle, that is. Sleeping gods, movin’ stars.)<\/p>\n
Now it’s time to say goodbye to Shub and all her kin
\nThey’ll happily devour you, leavin’ just a pile of skin
\nDon’t look at them directly, it’ll cause insanity
\nIt’s a side-efect of non-euclidian geometry.
\n(Dark young, that’s what they call ’em now.
\nRopy tentacles. Y’all run screamin now, ya hear?)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
