Phantasmagoria, I was preached, is sin: To clutch to dreamlings is ill-will; To ponder about freedom is misanthropy, But to succumb fosters good- will An iota of irenic coexistence, fugitive, Washes away rebellious thoughts? No! Men, remains of flesh, tricked, eros, Follow their desires, where the go? ‘Son, to this earth belong we, transient Creatures are we; have to dwell on ‘their’ Wishes, weak, weary, a love-in, common- Touch; ‘they’ have teeth and scare.’ Worm’s eye view, attainder, yield, Stop! Cul-de-sac! Walls! Apartheid Walls! High! Not enough to thwart efforts to Seek freedom, e’en via blood rainfalls.

Phantasmagoria, I was preached, is sin: To clutch to dreamlings is ill-will; To ponder about freedom is misanthropy, But to succumb fosters good- will An iota of irenic coexistence, fugitive, Washes away rebellious thoughts? No! Men, remains of flesh, tricked, eros, Follow their desires, where the go? ‘Son, to this earth belong we, transient Creatures are we; have to dwell on ‘their’ Wishes, weak, weary, a love-in, common- Touch; ‘they’ have teeth and scare.’ Worm’s eye view, attainder, yield, Stop! Cul-de-sac! Walls! Apartheid Walls! High! Not enough to thwart efforts to Seek freedom, e’en via blood rainfalls.
