Rapping on-
the casements of my ear.
Impudent intruder,
the casements of my ear.
Impudent intruder,
digging, piercing and,
eating up the crux .
He enters the hirsute plains;
The rocky crust explodes,
Spurting a fountain of memories.
The buzz,
He enters the hirsute plains;
The rocky crust explodes,
Spurting a fountain of memories.
The buzz,
foaming at the mouth,
Turns me deaf-
Turns me deaf-
to the voices crying and
Calling my name.
Dense white icy flakes
Calling my name.
Dense white icy flakes
drizzle dews in the air.
Warmth of gentle touches
Warmth of gentle touches
fades into coldness.
The river recalls all her tributaries;
the meteoric bustle of warm blood rushing to cross the frontiers,
My beloved's frail kisses that;
The river recalls all her tributaries;
the meteoric bustle of warm blood rushing to cross the frontiers,
My beloved's frail kisses that;
falls like hailstones on my forehead ,
and,his burning sighs that knock
and,his burning sighs that knock
against the dewy walls of my throat;
hasten to melt into,
a drop of tear or
a cold whimper.
The buzz is drowning the heck.
The drum is beating against the walls.
The flashback is on;
My first joy,first love,first kiss-
first sorrow,first tears;
Shoves in like a slide show.
Some are nailing my head
Some are nursing my wounds
Some are picking the worms out of me;
Everything moves, fades and slips
into loud scream,
a cold whimper.
The buzz is drowning the heck.
The drum is beating against the walls.
The flashback is on;
My first joy,first love,first kiss-
first sorrow,first tears;
Shoves in like a slide show.
Some are nailing my head
Some are nursing my wounds
Some are picking the worms out of me;
Everything moves, fades and slips
into loud scream,
And the buzz is heard no more.
