I remember on shattered ashes And the frigidity of the musky noon Rumbling gently on our scale-like frame Whilst the lonely light evanesced in the dark alley For the ***** of truth it proclaimed Alike Elymas, bitter cecity we had stroked No tinge of light could be sensed To ken the changes of good and evil Evil and evil sprouted Resonating for all to embrace.

Sweet past, sour future!
I remember on shattered ashes And the frigidity of the musky noon Rumbling gently on our scale-like frame Whilst the lonely light evanesced in the dark alley For the ***** of truth it proclaimed Alike Elymas, bitter cecity we had stroked No tinge of light could be sensed To ken the changes of good and evil Evil and evil sprouted Resonating for all to embrace.
The poem evinces the failure of a group of people to proclaim the truth. The poet tells us about how they enjoyed the past moments while the present and the future represents the reverse. They allowed fear to becloud their sense of proper reasoning and judgement thereby making their abode the chagrin of the alliens.
