serpent column - feuersäule lyrics

Loading...

“wehe dieser grossen stadt! – und ich wollte, ich sähe schon die feuersäule, in der sie verbrannt wird!”

seest primal waters rising
roused from icy slumber
to meet, in cruel jest
drought unending
harvest cruel?
and seest plutos ascendant
flummoxing fools upon thrones
preaching ἄτην to men of the polis
frail of frame and φρήν
or sedent, abandoned to masturbation
endorphin bound; a maximalism grotesque
unlike any depths h-therto sunk
by a culture in freefall?
ye, regard them with hatred
and thou shalt smile ‘sdainful
for entwined is the arid destiny
of bearded men
incensed by injustice perceived
vicious executors of the machete
fleeing ruined clime
at misery’s pitch intolerable;
they shall come
and gore these swine
burning to a cinder their pitiful monuments
arts of a culture prolapsed
so shall perish this generation of heliogabalites
under the hammer of solar -ssault
radiation inexorable, indifference cosmic
indifference supreme

ὄρνυθι vast κρατορία
darken our minds to savagery
petrify our hearts to granite
engulf us in unquenchable fire
that shall burn gloriously
like the gleaming of a god

“…ὣς αἰεὶ ἀχιλῆα κιχήσατο κῦμα ῥόοιο
καὶ λαιψηρὸν ἐόντα: θεοὶ δέ τε φέρτεροι ἀνδρῶν.”
