|
|
In the wordless chamber
|
they feared Death
|
desperately.
|
Thus they clustered
|
to the fruits of the Earth.
|
Craving diversion,
|
as if to avoid knowing why.
|
|
In the wordless chamber
|
they feared life
|
desperately.
|
Thus they proclaimed
|
any given truth
|
and swallowed,
|
as if to justify their fear.
|
|
He knew that there had been hordes of seers
|
before him who set out to cure.
|
Though, the sick wished not to part with their decease,
|
as if it made them feel alive.
|
|
In the wordless chamber
|
he accepted desperation
|
and the unpredictable manifestations
|
of hope.
