|
For long endless millions of instants |
|
I drank at the goblet of illusion |
|
Tilling tumours and follies |
|
Desperately wandering |
|
Through the dark tunnels |
|
Of the bone box |
|
Then, submitting |
|
I chose to drown |
|
In the ashes of my dreams |
|
When purity is raped |
|
Three days are not enough |
|
To resurrect: |
|
Everywhere |
|
Leprosy spreads out |
|
The light of the eyes |
|
Is extinguished |
|
Thunders now shatter |
|
The eardrums |
|
The scream is: |
|
"The plague be on you!" |
|
The dust |
|
I used to build |
|
The impalpable reality |
|
Of my nights |
|
Brings me back |
|
Along the paths |
|
Where I scattered |
|
Useless hopes |
|
Believe! |
|
Can I trust you? |
|
No, please, don't! |
|
Can I trust you? |
|
Forever, really, forever! |
|
Oaths engraved in the water... |
|
Obey! |
|
As a child, or an idioT |
|
Who follows the laws |
|
Of the XXXX others? |
|
Quicksands have just one |
|
Unrelenting goal |
|
Bon voyage, mon amour... |
|
Fight! |
|
That invisible enemy |
|
Nestled behind those |
|
Gorgeous, false, sharp |
|
Smiles |
|
In order to conquer the future: and destroy it! |
|
I go back - once more - into the abyss of my nothing |
|
You know |
|
The dead have the virtue of looking like each other |
|
It seems like yesterday |
|
We were children |
|
And playing at running |
|
After each other; |
|
You would often lock me |
|
In the dark cellar |
|
And I implored: |
|
"Please open!" |
|
I used to run trampling on |
|
The little heads |
|
- Cut off - |
|
Spread ripe on the lawn |
|
We had no mother |
|
So we're taking turns |
|
In being her |
|
You have visiting my dreams |
|
Leaving to snow |
|
Through almost |
|
Closed fingers |
|
Glittering crystals |
|
Of verginal illusions |
|
Time seemed our brother |
|
Until the deadly night |
|
Twisted, I preserved you |
|
- Jealously - beside me |
|
Gelid, adorned with |
|
The damned cloths |
|
Of the sudden |
|
Silence... |
|
... while |
|
Ddreamful... |
|
... I offered you |
|
A smile... |
|
... in a suspended flash |
|
The spirit... |
|
... was plucked away |
|
By the... |
|
... sacrilege of fatal arms! |
|
Forever! |
|
Remember? |
|
Forever! |
|
I kept the secret |
|
"Where is the bride?" |
|
"Forsaken him!" |
|
"Fleeing the deceived" |
|
"Left him alone!" |
|
Talk, talk |
|
You fools! |
|
Forever I wanted |
|
Still, lifeless and empty |
|
The shadow of you |
|
To lie on |
|
The bridal couch |
|
Where you laughed |
|
Astonished |
|
Minding the tales |
|
Bizarre and contorted |
|
I told you every night |
|
Prior to submitting |
|
To the empire of the daek |
|
Mors at suae cohortis ludus: |
|
"Anathema, anathema tibi!" |
|
Arcani vis et natura: |
|
"Anathema, anathema tibi!" |
|
They who know, do not speak! |
|
They who talk, do not know! |
|
"Maledictus! Maledictus!" |
|
We are just sketches of men |
|
Caught in a wicked vortex |
|
Where tertium non datur |
|
Between being God |
|
Or being damned |
|
But, after all |
|
Isn't it true that |
|
An inaudible suggestion |
|
An ineffable remorse |
|
A secret instinct |
|
Reveal the impurity |
|
Hidden in success |
|
The vulgarity of victory |
|
The filth nestling |
|
In fortune: |
|
Pure purity |
|
Absolute catharsis, |
|
Is in misadventure |
|
In tragedy |
|
In one's ineluctable |
|
Check mate |
|
And when the lights dim |
|
And falls slowly the curtain |
|
I return to dance in a ring |
|
With the skeleton man |
|
And the bearded lady |
|
The bird-boy and |
|
The laughing dwarf; |
|
Among dragons |
|
And avenging angels |
|
Winged maidens |
|
And herds of blind men |
|
Who dark |
|
With open wide orbits |
|
Taking me at last |
|
To the world where |
|
Uncertainty does not exist |
|
In heaven or underground |
|
Even angels cry, even hero refuses to fly... |
