Yard Globe Sisyphus
I have moonbeams illuminate my dreams
To transmute the midnight mind into gold
Through the alchemy of Morphean streams,
From hell, to hyper-Uranian cold...
And in that Zephyr blast of lofty air
Are all the fevered scenes of dire hope
Amid nightmares that contrast and compare
Memento mori with immortal scope;
That girandole lens the gods would abuse
As the Sauron eye of old doom and gloom
Which the low born man will treat as a muse
Where ratio and proportion will bloom
Beyond the Eden we all thought we knew...
Of pain for most, and pleasure for the few!
To transmute the midnight mind into gold
Through the alchemy of Morphean streams,
From hell, to hyper-Uranian cold...
And in that Zephyr blast of lofty air
Are all the fevered scenes of dire hope
Amid nightmares that contrast and compare
Memento mori with immortal scope;
That girandole lens the gods would abuse
As the Sauron eye of old doom and gloom
Which the low born man will treat as a muse
Where ratio and proportion will bloom
Beyond the Eden we all thought we knew...
Of pain for most, and pleasure for the few!
