The wall of lament is heaped up
The fool's god is revered
To live is a poisoned cup, the suffering of baseless worry
Who can grant me the means to drink it dry
The sage's eagle, said to dwell in the sun
Only the beating of its wings echoes
In these two eyes reside
Dark and light, on which side?
I must gaze toward tomorrow
I wonder if that is what I should do
A city of parched rubble
Connecting points and lines
All that remains are meaningless things
Overflowing
Loneliness like a fire
I cradle my body and soothe it
Droplets drip into the dark culvert
Raise the poisoned cup; even if this life is full
The dream of death we long for drifts ashore
Claws sinking into the fortress, a solitary eagle
Only the wingbeats rise, spiraling
In that azure sky, mete out the stoning
I stand at the place where heaven and earth meet
Memories, like blossoms bearing fruit
Only scorched, blistered, desiccated husks
The soul of that day
I wonder where it has gone

Cold skin, draw near and touch it
Let the wounds of the chest meet other wounds
A map we must trace again
I carve it here
The world has unseen wings
Hidden in its shadow
Shoot down the pure white bird
To live is a toast; the pleasure passed from mouth to mouth
Even the thirsting laugh and breath falter, gasping
In the palms of entwined comfort
Only emptiness swells
Ah, to die a glorious death and scatter so beautifully
Beyond ecstasy, you are still there
The wall of lament is broken down
The foolish people are slaughtered
To live is a poisoned cup; the sorrow of loving
Who will grant me the means to drain it dry
The silent eagle that sleeps beneath the moon
Only its cry descends, fluttering down
Raise the toast; even if my life is full
The cowardly death-game goes on without end
Claws gnawing into the fortress, a solitary eagle
Only the wingbeats rise, dancing upward
In that azure sky, mete out the stoning
I see the moment when crime and punishment are born
