Kassandra II


What kind of death has given me   The yearning for
                                               emptiness
Fatigue made of matter Burden that I shirk
Knowledge that makes me melancholy
Direction that nature doesn't understand

What kind of death has given me   Answer before question
What kind of death has written his words on my brain
For what kind of death do I live?

What opposite of life   For this is no life
Life is lust   energy   and excitement
beautiful like a mad horse spurred by pain
a Macedonian mount on the Muses' mountain
when Athens is dead.
