1. Stream
I long for you
As a flower for the morning dew
I long for you
As a hind longs for the running streams
Frown on me no more
And let me smile again
Before I go away
And cease to be
While I refused to speak
My agony was quickened
My heart burned within me
As the fever rose
My eyes are open
But I can not see
2. Monody
3. So Pure
So pure
Once again inhaling the poison
Aggressive
Turquoise
Powdery
Fluttering oxygen
This room
This irregular galaxy
This glassy stone
Falling from your skull
That's all
As if I was alive
An event
A journey
Uncompleted
But still fishing...
Your appearance could melt
So pure
4. The Wooden Lodge
5. Sophisticated Vampires
This rave masquerade
Of sophisticated vampires
They stride between earthworms
Entrance the soil
They edge along pavements
Intoxicated vampires
Evasive evasive
Escape the resounding bell
Evasive more evasive
Sophisticated vampires
Sent out of this world
By a fountain of blood
6. Harvest
The cat sharpens its claws
And runs into the cornfields
Children playing hide and seek
A frail figure dressed in a cape
Wandering with measured steps
Haunted by derisive words
They want to capture the ogress
Wandering aimlessly
Finding pebbles on the ground
Picking leaves from from an oaktree
Stalks make rents in green sails
Have some candy
She says
Far beneath the raging sea
Lies a monstrous vessel
Chained men singing elegies
7. Did You
Built walls of porouse words
Made labyrinths and steeples
Which speared the atmosphere
A ray of light was let in
Blinded me
Shattered my white knuckles
I wake under the grey face of a tree
Dambering in coagulated blood
Prevail in a life less scenery
I grasp 'round the dead wooden stem
Crawl into the narrow shades
The spiders web has caught me
And slowly in silk I'm entwined
I remember me
Do you?
Did you find me?
Did you kill me?
Did you bury me?
Did you?
8. Myriad of Peep-holes
The nimbus of the moon
Resting on a bitch - dark sky
Pierced by a needle
A myriad of peep - holes
Illuminating
The moist earth against my ear
Hear the moles industrious search for a lair
Who throws the serpents swimming in the air
By the birches
Wings are trembling
The beetle buzzes
Waving its feelers
Come drink with me
The moonbeams will make us reel
Who throws the serpents dancing in the air
9. Sort of Invisible
- Good evening, Mr. Thompson
(You callous guy)
- How do you do?
- Good evening, Mrs. Thompson
(Luxuriant madame)
- How do you do your hair?
- Oh, I recognized you in the crowd
Even though you were
Sort of invisible.
- Oh yes, I am so satisfied,
And I love you both very well.
Thank you!
10. A Touch of...
11. Hollow
12. The Barge
13. Sleep
The day vanishes
Withers like trodden grass
Our whispers are wafting along by the breeze
Through an open passage
Absorbed by the night
Conjure up the sleep
Sleep, sleep stealing through us
Cover our eyelids with silk
Carrying someone
Carrying someone in wavy water
The ocean is troubled to its depths
Thunderbolts and fireflies
Play the grand piano
Sear the sleeking silk
The embryo cowers in fear
And stares through the surface
Fear, fear, striking fear
Burying someone
Burying someone in wavy waters
