‘God’-the God of love:
In His name, they rejoice
Nothing but His name!
On His promises, they dwell
...
They live to die!
Death, the longing of all men
They are born to die!
Fate, the companion of infants
...
Dreams;
Facts that keep flying away
From the paths of reality
Into the driveways of insanity
...
Who holds men by the throat?
When the bells of dawn ring
And pulls them out of the covers
From the warmth and comfort of sleep
...
He who has seen no fangs,
has seen no python.
He who has sailed no storms,
has harbored on no ocean
...
When the birds would chirp
and fill the air with joy
When the owls would cry
and send the thrills of terror and sorrow
...
When it rains:
its not the time to cuddle up
its the time to go to the torrent
its not the time to hibernate
...
I send you my letter
you who reads hearts better
to tell you how life is turning sour
and that my sorrows are more
...
Rising from the grave,
through the paths of despair.
Holding the barrel high,
and burying the nobble low.
...
I know I'll enter
aiming for the center
goodness is my mentor
in warmth and bad weather
...
