Beneath Eternal Oceans of Sand |
In the cosmos |
There is balm as well as bitterness |
And that balm is Nepenthe |
Yet underneath endless oceans of sand |
I have not forgotten |
Those who had betrayed me |
Silent and unmovable |
I am not sorry |
For I had hated the light |
Now I ride with the undead |
Across the night-sky |
And play by day |
Amongst the catacombs of Nephren-Ka |
In the sealed and unknown |
Valley of Hadoth by the Nile |
I know that light is not for me |
Save that of the moon over the rock tombs of Neb |
Nor any debauchery save the unknown feasts of Nitokris |
Beneath the great pyramid |
But in the loneliness of entombment |
I welcome the bitterness of alienage |
