Mother Nature wants me dead

Mother Nature wants me dead

Sun, why have you abandoned me
after all these years? 
You used to dry my tears 
your light guided me through my fears 
when I lacked volunteers 
Now your rays hit me like spears
Now all sunshine disappears 

Wind, why have you abandoned me
surely, not you too?
You used to carry me with you  
Oh, how high I flew 
when you blew 
Now you won’t let me through 
Now sharp gusts cut me into two 

Sea, why have you abandoned me 
what for? 
You used to wash me ashore 
safe and secure 
when I’d lost an oar
Now you intimidatingly roar
Now algae pull me to the seafloor 

Moon, why have you abandoned me
is it already time for goodbyes? 
You used to sing me lullabies 
and close my eyes 
when I’d given sleep so many tries 
Now you hide from me in the murky skies 
Now you ignore my cries 
Now you merely watch me agonize 
Now insomnia keeps me awake til sunrise 

Sun, Wind, Sea and Moon
you’ve left me far too soon 
you were my allies!
All of you, apologize!
Apologize!
Apologize!

Because otherwise,
when Mother Nature targets a weak person 
he’ll continue to worsen 
until he dies

I eat (high-quality) human meat

Headless body, what a treat!
Decapitated crying meat!
The mistresses scurry, their dresses...

Fairies of the Flesh

Fairies of the Flesh

Bend it, twist it, crack it, break it
A woman’s limb is flesh counterfeit
Stretch the neck...

air, twisting magic

atmosphere angrily moans

theatre in clouds.

ALWAYS IN MY HEART

ALWAYS IN MY HEART

Things will come between us...

No matter how far we may drift apart...

Nothing can separate...
