Текст песни

As I descended with the Dogs Blood Rising, so then I ascended to the Thunder
Perfect Mind. Great grey bloodspeckled slabs of slate have fallen — this is my
vision in the croaking jeering world: All idiotic faces and swollen hearts;
in the papers the faces are not real, in the world the faces are not real —
but in the Heart of the Hearts the Face is real. The dead die abroad,
the crows fly, the wolves fly, and four poorly painted cardboard horsemen
sheet over the back of the winds
They are not legion — but close
God walked on Earth in those days. Now, still, in my Hearts He walks still
In the green fields far away there is a solid tree (mother and the Sign she
makes). On the brokenhorse zodiac signs, yellow face passes (All the Rainbow
her arms were…). All books piled up in dirty heaps, craterlike surface,
pitted — Oh, bellissima — Largherana — if the seahorse was golden, colden…
and talking back the bloody streams of God’s own Pain: «Why should we have
compassion for others, when God Himself has had no pity… on others?
««Take back the bloodspeech», she said to me… Certain colours came from her
body; she is alone!
God walked on Earth in those days. Now, still, in my Hearts He walks still
And the brokenface of this horizoned world is covered by crystalcross ice.
And the brokenface of this horizoned world is covered by crystalcross ice…
when this whole wide eyeless world sighs, this eyeless world sighs…
All the stars are souls each single planet is the lifeflame of the nothingy
eternally spark. I cannot believe despite the evidence of one Godeye and one
pooreye that this world is God’s own bloodred grassgreen blueblack skypied
Paradise. When I lay in the arms of one woman I said to her silent: «You will be forever mine though You go as You shall though You diediedie.
Sleep as You shall die I shall love You always between Your bodies.
I pray that I shall be forever Thine. If I say to You Love then Listen You
should be crowned above all.»
God walked on Earth in those days. Now still, in my Hearts He walks still
