I am in the night
I am every part of it
The consumption of its beast 
The deck that it deals
The veins that bleed
The caress of its serpent

I am the night
As it writhes and undulates toward dawn
It moans and cries a symphony of anger
I am its agony as it struggles against the light
And dies with the strike of the Sun God.

Dave's Comments:

Chris Haskett is right when he describes language as being a little less accessible than nonfiction, but that doesn't mean that there isn't something of value here. Haskett's guitar stylings are interesting even in an experimental mode, perhaps moreso than in a band context, since he is not constrained by a conventional musical structure. If you're a fan of Haskett's guitar solos, you'll want to check this out.
