Inspired by Gilgamesh's quest for immortallity.

Through the steps of conquering

From Nergal to Shamash.
Form chaos to order.
Wide open Charybdis maw.
To Scylla's tidal waves.
This journey takes form.
From Sheol's raging lord.
To heavens' tragic toll.
My race of unknow goal.
From Uruk's golden walls.
Left behind me only dust.

I look to the skies when summer's war has ended.
And wash away crimson stains from my face.
Behold greatness of past and future conquests.
Images that quench my thirst a second more.

Watch my fist upon the throne.
Undisputed king of seas and earth.
A silhoutte shining bright.
In years of glorious wars.
For the sun escapes my hand.
Afraid of falling into night.
Father!!! Look wath I have gain!!!
Endless reign reaching the clouds.

Babylon, soon thou will be mine.
For thou art my scarlet whore.
Where all emperors dine at once.
A sanctuary for wanton Gods.
Thy fingers cannot reach my being.
I cast the shadows of terror upon.
Mercy I know not, nor either defeat.
See how death becomes my eyes.

Innana guide my steps!!!!
Thou, morning star, the Venu's light.
Thy heart cradles love and war.
The path I truendorous follow.
To bring the Akitu of my throne.
I will vanquish every Abgallu.
That our path dares to cross.
Nothing shall stop our war.

From Enki to Eridu.
From virgins to whores.
Pestilence to fever.
I stare upon delight.
From depths below.
To Kuthu in mourn.
Through Juno's rein.
To Ereshkigal's flames.
My path lies ahead.
Upon skulls from ruined crowns.

Until the light from her breasts.
Scourged my sight with oceans of pain.
She, the Goddes of my worship.
Around my heart tightness her grip.
Astarte grants her being to me.
But no love can bar my desire.

My conquering'll have no end.
Leave the shrine built from ruins.
Thy anger will not stop my reign.
My scheme points to the stars.

Babylon, now I'll veil thy face.
Keep thy deep red lips from thristy kings.
That once drank from a wealthy cunt.
As burdel for wanton worms.
Walls my dreams sought now admire.
For a once aloof ground arises again.
Beneath golden wings of Uruk's dawn.
Where the sun can't cast its light.

Okay, I read even though I don't know who the hell you're taling about and there's too many for me to bother looking up. I thought it was intriguing until I got to the last stanza and then it totally got destroyed to me. The infamous "c" word. You might be creating something there, but it's still not flying as far as my liking. The rest is really good.
