Poet Introduction
I'm as deep as an owl in a day-mare.
My Grave
I am not afraid nor do I care to die,
For didn't you tell me that you will not cry?
But now that the grave is my womb,
How dare you weep over my tomb?
For didn't you tell me that you will not cry?
But now that the grave is my womb,
How dare you weep over my tomb?

Afterdeath
Blood falls down with the rain
While I cry in my womb
Stains appeared on my vein,
While I dig for my tomb.
I escaped the vampire's lair
And ran back to my grave
My last glimpse was his thirsty snare,
No more shall I be his slave.
I have conquered the afterdeath
And I dare face again the tribulations of life,
I shall die again, and when I'm ready,
I'm ready, give me my knife.
While I cry in my womb
Stains appeared on my vein,
While I dig for my tomb.
I escaped the vampire's lair
And ran back to my grave
My last glimpse was his thirsty snare,
No more shall I be his slave.
I have conquered the afterdeath
And I dare face again the tribulations of life,
I shall die again, and when I'm ready,
I'm ready, give me my knife.

The Drakon
Their lands crumbled
For the Drakon had come,
Some fought for all,
Some fought for some.
Many tried and never returned,
For they fought for pride and so they mourned,
But my Father fought for love,
And the Drakon bled to death,
And my father stayed there and cut off its head.
I wept,
For my Father fought for me,
With a crack on his ribs and a scrape on his knee,
I had a glimpse of his last smile,
And it meant security.
One,
Only one among the seven thousands had succeeded,
In the battle against the undefeated.

The Life I Never Longed to Meet
A million roads to travel,
A billion steps to take;
My only one life--should it marvel,
And demand a second life for life's own sake?
I have done things I couldn't resist,
And been to places that don't exist;
The life I've never longed to meet,
Is sitting now on my very seat.
A billion steps to take;
My only one life--should it marvel,
And demand a second life for life's own sake?
I have done things I couldn't resist,
And been to places that don't exist;
The life I've never longed to meet,
Is sitting now on my very seat.
