Nyarlathotep

The dark sky is twinkling above, like flickering spots of light.
Past the fake beauty and deep into space where the stars no longer shine.
The light ends before the black gaping horror below, leading to the mindless things.
Among moon-toad things in their horrible stench, surrounded by grotesque fungi, they make use of semi-human slaves.
Among neverending darkness and sightless monstrosities, which are the nameless larvae of the other gods who are without mind or soul.
Within the centre of this,standing behaind the cracked table of stone amid the whirling mass of chaos in the neverending darkness lies the master of all the damned.
It the faceless Nyarlathotep in his crawling chaos and madness!
He, spawning his hideous and disgusting children that squirm and writhe where no one can  see, forever gnawing in the eternal darkness.
He is protector of the earth bound gods whom no mortal shall ever see in dream or in the waking world.
Forever encased in their onyx castle atop the dreaded peaks of the monstrous mountain, atop unknown Kadath.
Where the wind is cold and fierce, this is where the earth bound gods  shall reside in the eternal night behind the fake beauty of the flickering spots of light.
Only few can hear their feeble cries, for no mortal shall behold the earth bound gods in their beauty and splender.
Forever trapped in eternal night behind the fake beauty of flickering light, they whisper:
"Save us from eternity, take us to the marvellous sunset city, take us away from Kadath in the cold waste. Save us.....carter."

Author notes

This is based on the story " Dream- Quest of the Unknown Kadath", Not all parts of the story are inclided in the poem though, but I hope you enjoy it even though it's not that good and I'll never reach up to Lovecraft's greatness.
