Black is the colour of gods
For clothed in it
We sit on thrones crafted from darkness
And from there judge the integrity of mortals.
Man has proved disloyal
So we sit to decide
If grace still stands a chance or not.
Do not judge us unfair
For every time blood is shed
We weep.
We cry black bitter tears
Mourning the one that never really lived.
She didn't know what she wanted from life
So, we didn't know what to give her.
Death seemed alluring to her
Infact, she called for him
And so, we let her have him.
Don't misunderstand us.
Blood is beautiful
Only when offered up as sacrifice
Not when snatched from a mortal.
We delight in sacrifices.
Don't think us rigid, dear mortal
For if a man can plead his case
We always grant his request.
We are gods.

I've checked out the website and registered. But, I can't seem to log in as it keeps telling me that my password is incorrect. This isn't the first time I've encountered this. Any idea how to resolve it?

I tried registering afresh and still couldn't log in. I guess that's it then.

Oh so sorry about that,
will contact the technical man behind it. He will surely know what to do. Please bear with me.
