The Dance Of death

 


                                   


                                                 


               

               1.    Under the eternal shades of sleep

              Under the graves buried so deep

              Transported to the world of death

              You lie; no grief, no pain; no disturbing breath.

 

             2.    I put an end to raging powers

              My might demolishes lofty towers;

              No beauty tempts my timely call

              No discrimination; I equalize all.

 

         3.           I terminate here miser’s greed

            I wind up here stern dogmatic creed;

            I break down here vile brutal lust

            I burn away all passions to dust.

 

      4.              With perfect cold equanimity

           With philosophic tranquility

           You lie, waiting for your future fate

           Like sages immersed in breathless state.

 

    5.                 Dwelling in another dimension

          Above the pull of earthly terrain

          Above the stress of sensual rut

          You lie like silent statues cut.

 

  6.          I play on your grey graves

         I leap on the grassy waves

         I kiss your icy lily lips

         I touch the shiny marble chips.

 

7.                     I dance on your static crowns

       I care not your frozen frowns;

       I sport with your muddy hair

       I pluck off roses red and fair.

 

8.                  I dance aloft like crackling fire

      Upon your bones with crimson spires;

      Your motives and cravings all I end;

      Your disparities all I mend.

 

9.              Ev’n God with meditative gaze

    Watches my playful destructive craze;

     I let loose souls from fleshy chains

     I liberate them from worldly pains.


10.      Though dreadful my actions may seem

    I work for all and I redeem

    Souls and make their onward journey clear

    Without rotting forever in stasis here.
