Hunting and fighting
Across space and time
Scaly Paladins
Same species
Different bloodlines
Haunting the shadows of countless suns
Celebrating in the waning glow of many a moon
Worlds without end
Time and time again
Enemies
Competitors
Occasional collaborators
Lords of the night
Predator's nonpareil
Rapacious lords of the night
Reptilians
The masters of the twilight
Unequalled cunning
Unmatched wizardry
Unbridled ferocity
Untold generations of natural and technological selection
The ultimate chameleon
Shifting at will
Acquiring in a heartbeat
Almost any skill
Predator's nonpareil
Rapacious lords of the night
Reptilians
The masters of the twilight
There is a dancer
A lizard in a human mask
With only an inkling of his true task
Dancing alone
to the sounds of silence
far, far from home
Yearning…
To blaze his own memorable trail
Outside the overbearing shade of his mother's tail
To forge his own destiny
New Alliances
Old friends
Old enemy
That which was once wrong
Will soon be right
That which was once forbidden
Will soon happen
They're scripting fresh lyrics
For an age-old reptilia song
They've learnt from the past
Planned for the future
Blood no matter how thin is thicker than water
A new pack is forming
A new chapter in the making
An arrival
An awakening
And somewhere, someplace a dancer, and another
And another, dreams of his birthright
And an ancient Terpsichore, which reverts them to true form
Under the bloodied moon on a “new” earth
The final swarm
They are…
Predator's nonpareil
Rapacious lords of the night
Reptilians
The masters of the twilight
There is no seam
Where the circle joins
No markers between bloodlines
Many hunting as one
The ultimate mission
Mankind's total subjugation
And another glorious future
For select species of Lacerta
As intergalactic dragons dominate their days
And terror-filled nights
The pervasive subtlety of an alien brand of slavery
At the claws of the…
Rapacious lords of the night
The reptilians
We're the masters of the twilight
Most of your kind is fast asleep
Even when they're wide awake
You're living in a human illusion
And the glass is about to break…
The chains of our destiny were forged in
the pits of a bloodstained history
To the victors…
I am the malefic versifier
