| Suddenly
|
| One sultry night,
|
| The moon burst
|
| into fragments
|
| broken by unrelenting
|
| sharp-clawed hand
|
| from nowhere…
|
| Afterwards the swollen
|
| Stars eroded
|
| Making red thick streams
|
| Flow down from the welkin
|
| It’s all
|
| going to be engored once more…
|
| Vehemence came as anodyne
|
| ‘Tween pulsating earth and sky
|
| From now on you have my word
|
| You will never be alone
|
| II
|
| They woke up
|
| In their own beds —
|
| Women, men, old and young…
|
| Without tongues
|
| And without eyes
|
| Spurred by one
|
| desire
|
| To find help
|
| They ran out
|
| Into the streets
|
| Panic spread so quickly
|
| They clung to each other
|
| In fear, reaching
|
| The bones and
|
| Shrieking hearts
|
| … Oh, vielleicht
|
| kennst du mein
|
| Gesicht nicht
|
| Mein eigen fleisch
|
| Und blut aber du kennst mein
|
| Name, mein name ist Tod
|
| Ich habe euch bey der hand genomen
|
| Ir must an meynen reyen komen
|
| Vehemence came as anodyne
|
| ‘Tween pulsating earth and sky
|
| From now on you have my word
|
| You will never be alone.
|
| This is me,
|
| Who set free
|
| Demons of infinite chaos
|
| And with me
|
| you will flee
|
| into the streams
|
| of impending storm
|
| III
|
| Suddenly
|
| One sultry night,
|
| The moon burst
|
| into fragments
|
| Like a blade
|
| Of guillotine
|
| Something fell
|
| Upon the
|
| Sleeping earth
|
| I am the one who
|
| Touched her delusive hand
|
| Heard her still voice and got lost in
|
| Mother Archaos' eyes
|
| Vehemence came as anodyne
|
| ‘Tween pulsating earth and sky
|
| From now on you have my word
|
| You will never be alone.
|
| Be without
|
| Any doubt
|
| The sands now
|
| Are running out
|
| And with me
|
| you will flee
|
| into the foreverness |
