I don't write to sing worship to any god, as I'm tired of gods I don't write for the kings that rule As they are also afraid of what has to come I don't write for my alike, the men, either As they are a prey of their disappointments and hatred as much as I I write for me, as I am tired of searching for immortality And that makes the difference between me and the old And new writers, who crave recognition from their peers I don't write for lies either, these are to men like honey That eludes the truth as much as a manure bed I am a son of elderliness. I am frustrated and disappointed on this lie Called life. And you that read me, enjoy the youth Because the slow crackle of the pendulum has ashes in its throat And the embalmed body does not laugh in the shadow of its tomb
