Twenty-Four Years |
Twenty-four years remind the tears of my eyes. (Bury the dead for fear that they walk to the grave in labor.) in the groin of the natural doorway I crouched like a tailor Sewing a shroud for a journey By the light of the meat-eating sun. Dressed to die, the sensual strut begun, With my red veins full of money, in the final direction of the elementary town I advance for as long as forever is. |
