| Once I woke up and realized…
|
| Something is wrong, I’m terrified…
|
| Fright thrilled my body, through it has run…
|
| I touched myself and I have found —
|
| That pale spot on my forearm…
|
| With icy horror it was spread…
|
| Friable structure that spot had…
|
| And mouldly web amidst the spot —
|
| That loathsome lace of pallid rot…
|
| My nerves were strained in awful pain…
|
| Gazing at (the) spot that grew again…
|
| I’ve crossed the wall which leads behind…
|
| I plunged asleep thus I was wound…
|
| I went astray amidst the swamps
|
| Amidst that haze, in filth alone…
|
| I screamed for help being lost in bogs…
|
| For some one close in… murky fogs…
|
| Awoke in horror, terrified —
|
| Completely covered with decay mould…
|
| Like musty cheese, like rotting tree…
|
| I yield with terror — flame for me!!!
|
| Be purified! |
| In flames I cried…
|
| Flames, clean my skin, Fire, scorch my fright!
|
| Flame was my part, I was in Fire!
|
| I’m burning now… I’m purified! |
