ASHEN CHALICE

1. REPRESIJA LJUVABI

Dok nosimo bol vašeg jadnika,
Krstom vladaju dolinama,
Ako bi postojala trunka srama u vašim srcima,
Lomili bi prste svojim bogovima.

Olakomili se psi ispod platna srama,
Te se krvnici nazivaju herojima,
Laju, vrište, sikću,
Ali pas bez zuba jedino cvili.

Grozna je misao moja.
Kao križ od tkiva.
Gubavih ruku, slaboga vida.
Divnog li prizora.
Bez srama, bez stidi.


LA TORTURE DES TÉNÈBRES


1. L'ÉLOIGNEMENT

Their archives could teach us all known permutations that had come to pass
But there was nothing they could teach us of those dark recesses of the human mind far beyond the reach of rationality
When the sun sets on this Earth forever
What will you be carrying with you through the darkness?
