letra de rendevous with cleopatra vii - kill the unicorn

Loading...

the shape and shadows of mystic things
things that fate fashion or forbids
the stuff of time forgotten kings
whose names falls off the pyramids

the ravelled riddle of the skies
the mouth made speechless that were wise
she sees the hand of death made bare
the faces faded that were fair
the hollow eyes and dusty hair
she’s my queen i’ll never share

and through her hair – imperial
curled likeness
of the river snake
pearl after pearl
she shreds them through
as any pearls heart
veined with blue

through hieroglyphs of gold and gem
like a keen pulse of god in them
god in them

her mouth is fragrant as a vine
serpent and scarab for a sign
the vine with birds in it’s boughs
between the beauty of her brows

and the harps tuned to thy glory
and the bards who sang thy story
queen of beauty through all ages
queen of love in storied pages
she sinks into her cushions
softly sheltering nest
while necklaces of gold
deep heaving on her breast

the shape and shadows of mystic things
things that fate fashion or forbids
the stuff of time forgotten kings
whose names falls off the pyramids

oh sweet earth, from whom
the green blade cometh
queen of beauty
crowned of nations
fame still pours her bright libations
warmed eye she is
the princess of the south

whoever says its different
get sealed his mouth
she put the poison into her cup
and watched the thick foam wink and seethe
when we are dead
my beloved and i
sending up grass and blossoms to the sky
or…!

- kill the unicorn
