Literature Text

Dancing on the
Edgeless mountain.
Singing to the
Dying birds.

Why do we not
See the truth?

Why do we always seek to
Run away.

Cry!
For in the face of the masses
Lies the hidden star of death.

Drowning in the
Sea!

In the empty hands of our children
Lie the dying angels who used to dream.

Falling from the
Sky!

Sink into the
Earth!

Call upon the
High!

In the eyes of the crestfallen
Lie the long forgotten tears,
That used to flow from
Every single one of us.

We play the melodies
Of delusion.

Tell me, lord, what
Can we do,
If our only wish is
To be free from
you?

‘You are the soundless screams.
You are nothing.

You are just baseless lies.
You were never here.

I am the air you breathe.
I am demise.’
This is the first part of a series titled 'Totentanz'.
