Neoarchaean |
| True sorrow doesn’t flirt with hope |
| No matter how great it may be: hope rises twice as high |
| But spare me these seekers! |
| Leave me in peace |
| Down with them, down, down, down, down! |
| That which suffers, does never hope |
| For they will no longer impress me With all of the solemnity and with the voice of my greatest days: |
| I call to you my hearth, glorious hope! |
| Wrapped in the cloak of illusions |
| Come and sit beside me On the tripod of appeasement |
| With a whip of scorpions I chased you! |
| If you wish me to believe that |
| You have forgotten all the grief |
| Which my short-lived repentance caused you: Well, then bring along with you |
| The sublime procession — hold me up, I am fainting! |
| — of all the virtues which |
| I offended… and their everlasting atonements |
| Yes, good people |
| I order you to burn |
| On a spade red-hot from the fire |
| And with a little yellow sugar for good measure: to burn the duck of doubt |
| With its vermouth lips… which in the melancholy struggle between good and evil |
| Shedding teardrops which are not heartfelt |
| Creates everywhere, universal emptiness! |
| It is the best thing you can do Certainly, flesh and bone, you have no reason to blush: but listen to me |
| I don’t invoke your understanding |
| It would spit blood at the horror you cause! |
| Better forget all about it, |
| and be consistent with yourselves! |
| There were no constraints there |
| Whenever I wanted to kill… I killed |
