My favorite Line from H. P. Lovecraft Poems!

Post by yogitranscend »

"Soon, soon, if I fail not in brewing,
The redness and madness will vanish,
And deep in the worm-people'd darkness
Will rot the base chains that have bound me."

Excerpt from H. P. Lovecraft's poem Nathicana.

I like this line because the more I read it the broader the spectrum becomes of it's meaning. I take this out of context of the actual poem and just think about it, the imagery, the incredible breaking point it creates in my head. What a way with words!

Anyone else have a favorite line from Lovecraft they with to share?!
