|
In the wordless chamber |
|
They feared Death |
|
Desperately. |
|
Thus they clustered |
|
To the fruits of the Earth. |
|
Craving diversion, |
|
As if to avoid knowing why. |
|
In the wordless chamber |
|
They feared life |
|
Desperately. |
|
Thus they proclaimed |
|
Any given truth |
|
And swallowed, |
|
As if to justify their fear. |
|
He knew that there had been hordes of seers |
|
Before him who set out to cure. |
|
Though, the sick wished not to part with their decease, |
|
As if it made them feel alive. |
|
In the wordless chamber |
|
He accepted desperation |
|
And the unpredictable manifestations |
|
Of hope. |
