serpent column – promise of the polis lyrics
what of life remains?
compare the roamings of our γενέται
to the glories of the free man
trudging through the moldering corridors of history
beguiled by the promises of the polis
ringing hollow across decades broken on the rack:
freedom from brevity and vicissitude
a liberty utterly emptied of liberty
yes, there awaits you passchendaele and verdun
ypres interminable
and the gaping pit of enkidu
drained of his wild majesty
a stalker of beasts now broken
longing, absently, for a capsule of cyanide
you, your body shall be shattered ceaselessly
over the ornaments of civilization
for a mere crust of the bread of life
that is the fate of the diurnal
born late into this garish modernity
oubliette and face perpetual
sputtering along towards cataclysm
that glorious hour of noon
which we beckon ravenously
thrilled by each new portent of collapse
lashed by thy forkéd tongues, o μουσαγέτης
