Joker
“You have thrown me out
From your betel shaped heart
As if I am the joker of your world
In the kingdom of spades
And you have become my gambler
Of the moment who habits repeat wins.
But I am not certainly out of the circus!
Like the falling Oedipus I will retreat
By crumbling your kingdom of cards I defeat
You as the mother of my romantic mirth!
For the first time on heaven and earth
The audience will weep for their joker!”
From your betel shaped heart
As if I am the joker of your world
In the kingdom of spades
And you have become my gambler
Of the moment who habits repeat wins.
But I am not certainly out of the circus!
Like the falling Oedipus I will retreat
By crumbling your kingdom of cards I defeat
You as the mother of my romantic mirth!
For the first time on heaven and earth
The audience will weep for their joker!”
