A common veil of obvious,
Perpetual lies, upon a being in stone,
Uttering, bulk of sounds; All faces,
woven in vain; and uniform.
A vivid alchemy of existence; Thou, Child!
For man's palsied in pegged patterns,
Thy art; Dwell amidst thine seclusions
vaguely seen; within a tomb.
Unspoken sojourns, amidst surging seas of green,
Led to a hillside, unreal in its sinister vivid silence.
As all the echoes of an enthralled consciousness dies
There, into the twilight's deeps; Thy limits of beauty.
An ancient structure, in its sudden semblance
Transmutes hillsides harmony; all shudders of Thine.
As within an, ajar, forbidden, stone-carved gate,
An abstruse odour, invoked a past; unknown for Thee.
Spurred on, to grasp, all that lies beyond gloomy worlds,
Wherein, voices preserved, in their dissonant invokings.
Mumbled portentous tales, of all tragedies in Man,
Voices, once fleshes, behind Tomb's gate; Thee's the Key.
Day's noir common veil of obvious
Forever enthralls, for an existence so futile!
As Thy Bearer of all knowledge,
for the Child is gone
woven remains; inside the Tomb.
