Above the herd of human
With messy dazzling manes, Devotees treading our pathways, Unfurling flags for campaigns Lashing them with cold into very marrow Gashing deep wounds with harrowing pains They moved without canes or vessels, Hoping for deep, they always seek Gnawing the sour of Ideal Most perished in profound caverns Ravished with bliss to see their own blood spilling Oh, Death, sole caress for mouths that dwell silent! Horizon kept by lurid As naked sword, brooding defeat Crimson blood within their grateful bosom, passion and sorrow Versified lamentations Eminence, crowds are kneeling Assured, delighted and majestic Dragging hundreds whom none admire Vile martyrs of contorted chance, creeping behind They devour ashes with the same craze, The same salt tears ravage their sombre faces, Yet they are racked by doom coarse Sagging howl stuck in a weakened throat Promethean tribe with no vulture beside Ill Fortune, whose wild laughter lays them low He rides behind two beloved towards cesspool Blessed be, the one who blows his queer horn So that we writhe in fits of rollicking mockery Now let them flee, sated with every exploit Beat the tempest’s roar in stubborn pursuit Rather than ride at armored gallop Intoxicate feasting conqueror with incense! As for those ribalds, why not adorn them In scarlet rags until they howl and beg for cease When everyone has spat scorn in their faces, These apery glutted heroes, who entreat Thunder-quietly through the herd, grotesquely Commit hanging from pillory among the streets 02. Chant For Harvest
The almighty, omnipotent, seizured with fear, with hands upraised
Leaving the ruins, in the midst of dead, bare dead bodies piled around We will bow our heads in crimson pools! We will find tranquility in our hearts! We will slowly move shining blissfully! We will behold smiles of passed! And in red mirrors horror is raging Lovers are dead and houses are empty On the scaffold, passed upon mandrakes, Wounded, mortified - trifle after all Howbeit we will keep our hands clean, Everything falls, milieu becoming extinct Lovers are dead and houses are empty Lovers are dead and houses are empty And in red mirrors horror is raging, Lovers are dead and houses are empty Howbeit we will keep our hands clean, We will behold, only behold Proclaim, swear, confess and sing quietly like Neron sang once We will sing fire and raging furnace purity Strength of fabulous athletes and canaille agility Heroes alamort and torches luminary Whose halos as wreaths are set upon us! We will sing spring! The abundance of death healing our eyes! Dawn foreboding! Primordial breath, blissful youthfulness! We don't need any lies, widows chimeras Neither yoke honors nor cannon chime No past, and in beams of new dawns We won't hear Memnon's sigh! Deceased will stink with redolence For survived - death on the outside Bodies in blaze of the sun, earthly covet For gorgeous beauty and corpulent grains Plague will purify terra from shame, live in sorrowless virtue And the sea and lakes bathe sanguine vestiges 03. Chant For Austerity
O my splendour, o my pulchritude!
Atrocious fanfare where I won’t stumble! Magnificent anguish Whereon I am stretched! Hurrah for marvelous body! Hurrah for prodigious deeds! It began amid children's laughter With it will come to the end This poison will remain in our veins When the fanfare fading, We are sent back to the discord We who are so deserving of these torments! Let us fervently Embrace that promise The promise our souls And bodies are deserving This promise, this madness! Elegance, knowledge and violence! It began on the edge of disgust It ends with a whiff of chaos They promised us To bury the tree of good and evil in the shade Cast off tyrannical shackles of decency Laughter of children Wariness of slaves Austerity of virgins Fear of faces and forms from this place May you be consecrated by vigil remembrance! Besotted wake, sanctified! Even if it is just a masquerade in our favor Be blessed, the poison! We give our lives entirely! Besotted wake, sanctified! We give our lives entirely! 04. Chant For Insolence
Sarcasm and sardonic shriek
Where burden and misery hiding Rattling accursed and dire Refrains of sorrow and adversity Pariah laughter, agony grasp Filled with furious folly With rope around the neck Feasting with poison To laugh severe grief To laugh embittered menace Strident bottomless boredom Odious laughter as roaring howl, as lump in a throat Mockery over self, deep down longing Antiphon to the expectancy, irony ardor Oh bitter laughter! Having comprehend your dismay, Let me sing your hymnical span in these foul vignettes Occupy these verses, blaze, enliven Blast the catastrophe thunders Burn like bright fireworks Guffaw in anguish To laugh in distress To laugh in suffering To laugh on earth and streams To laugh upon heart full of weeping Roaring passion till ashen cloak Cowardice lurking, wearing the grin The rale of my death throes A hideous laugh will be only 05. Chant For Parade
What a towering fraud!
The kind that rape your worlds! Self-satisfied, in no hurry to devote their significant talent! Such wise men! Stares as blank as summer nights, Red and black, tricolored, golden star-stung steel! Faces twisted, livid, inflamed Hoarse guffaws, ablaze, what a brusque revelry! A violent Paradise of runaway sneers! But no match for your fakirs and hackneyed theatrics In costumes sewn together with all the taste of a nightmare, They slip savage slaps and tickle into old chestnuts They strut through tragedies filled with every Brigand and demigod missing from religion and history A little avant-garde here, some three-hankie stuff there Master charlatans who use riveting comedy To transform players and scenes, they use hypnotic hypocrisy Eyes ignite, blood sings, bones stretch, tears and red rivulets run Their clowning, their terror lasts for a minute, or months to go 06. Chant For Splendour
Tout passe. - L'art robuste
Seul a l'éternité. Le buste Survit à la cité. Et la médaille austère Que trouve un laboureur Sous terre Révèle un empereur. Les dieux eux-mêmes meurent, Mais les vers souverains Demeurent Plus forts que les airains. 07. Chant For Enlightenment
Brilliant boulevard whoredom
Where harlots like shells on stellar coast Belonging neither here nor the earth Where the wild-sharded cabs whirling Please us with the attitude, ardent as a coal Gallantry corroded by blade of summer lightning Consciousness of clairvoyant, eyelids fully filled And infiltrated with your presence I drink Lord's future perdition and thunder, Roasting my naked soul Make us born in inner skies, riddle with raining chasms Let dizziness pass through us with incandescent claw Satisfy us, cut us loose, we hunger after Intersidereal disturbances So let the streets weave intertwinings Between women and men, tangled and loomed As an eternal araneae would spin its web With thread of grateful, mystagogical Pour us out stellar larvae Open up these burning roads Make our brains reel In the depths of their own knowledge Ravish our intellects With the claws of a new typhoon Free us from consciousness With your cutting ember hands |
