Leg Chant 01:17
avete omnipotens crure

Leg Hymn 02:53
as I mow my paper lawn I think of You and just how beautiful You are avete omnipotens crure I walk down a path of false rubies and plastic grass towards a morphed face of curiosity I run down a collection of glowing prisms and floating tales towards a blackened array of thought I fly through a world of puffy buildings and wavy light towards Your lonely heart I walk down to You I walk down down down

Crure 04:09
avete what if it was five nights at freddy’s where it’s a monster that comes alife avete lengthening the space between the time it takes to think a thing and the mind’s eraser shavings suspended in pink air come come come take a look take a look now thy chalice runneth over come come come take a look take a look now idle eyes and feet astounded come come come take a look take a look now compartmentalizing mindscapes come come come take a look take a look now idolize the Limb expounded avete omnipotens the ever-present Patellic Cape body of water colored millions of times over avete the crackled glass keratin removes shards of your deepest insecurities to plant them anew to be reborn into the magnificence of It’s entropic patterns

Pilus Pillar thirty miles towards the heavens once was one of many now it stands alone thirty miles now alone surrounded by softened faces open mouths and dry eyes soon to be overcome by the organic prototype one hundred fifty-eight thousand four hundred feet standing straight for the parent Leg gleaming vulture circular flight around the pillar multiple millennia have not forgotten the triumphs and horrors of the Limb expounded all told here every thousandth year sand fills their shoes as they distance themselves they’ve overstayed their welcome the shoes turn to sand and the sand turns to skin unaware of the horrors to come four hundred and seventy minutes combined between all of them was the time they were allotted two minutes pass and they were all to avert their eyes the pillar grew two hundred and thirty-five feet taller that day with the mass and thoughts of those now lost

so far I think i’ve been wise away my worries are shooed by giving to It my food a personal hair disguise to me I think It has cooed my gift has lifted It’s mood I know others have been fooled worshipped with wrong attitude in search of an arrogant prize in their feet blood has pooled betrayal shocks fortitude I feel a lie in my eyes Limb is flawless, Limb is evil, Limb from Eden, a source of drought seeping moxie flushed by an eddy sandy fragrance coats your eyelids, Limb shall entrance in It’s desert has no mother nothing is equal lie in my eyes beguiled by flashy fortresses maroon my lofty thoughts of Leg call upon It’s chiseled angles, bask in It’s focused response fall upon It’s plateaued keratin, drown in It’s resilient salience clever displays of affection, only present to dismember never prone to prior detection, is not there but is and will affect you I do not know if god exists but I know that this is not it clever displays of affection, only present to dismember never prone to prior detection, is not there but is and will affect you my life had no feet, stapled to the forest floorboards was me my ghost, waxy and softened, given a life of its own to ruminate I know happiness now, much unlike who I was before stained glass dripping health, every beauty of life thanks to Leg avete never prone to prior detection, is not there but is and will affect you I don’t know if god exists but I know that this isn’t it

flavorless slabs of articulate talking meat I feel it’s time to accept my fate, faithlessly I conjure up excuses, rapidly discard them in my mind’s wastepaper basket all I see is nothing if You’re not there, the will to care it vanishes it turns pink in thin air creatures are drawn to You, they bow at Your feet they learn instantly how to speak and emote to accurately express their intensely emotional and somehow confusedly abstract love for You all I see is nothing if You’re not there I’m pouring the water into my eyes just like You told me I’m pouring the water into my eyes just like You showed me avete omnipotens crure I’m pouring the water into my eyes just like You told me I’m pouring the water into my eyes just like You showed me cold, I’m cold please remove the hourglass from my desk it’s filled with particles of speech it’s filled with everyone else’s memories please put it in an industrial oven ask the oven to take its warmth once it melts completely give me that warmth i have no skin left all i have is ice no one ever sits no one ever remembers what it was like let me help You help them i’m begging You

about

10 years of offerings to the almighty Leg have brought us here. From 2013 to 2022, Chip Sisson and I have created audiovisual offerings to Leg in the spirit of quelling It's magnificent ire, ideally transmogrifying said ire into appreciation and well-wishes. Cataloged above are the audio offerings, one for each year of the last decade. For a more in-depth history of these offerings, watch this: vimeo.com/803616722

Chip's visual offerings are incredible, quite often acting as the progenitor of the audio offerings with which they're matched. A collection of the full audiovisual offerings will be available to watch soon. Select individual tracks to read lyrics and view track art, nearly all of which are by Chip.

As stated in The 9 Exalted Footnotes:
The Great Toenail reflects one's truest identity and one's truest emotions. Those who swim through and navigate the veins of the Foot will live in bountiful glory evermore.

Blinding at first is the almighty shape. The exposed eye melts from its socket into the cup of the innocent bystanders, brought forth again to be given the chance to see.
