Fountains of the Deep
The sea bed has beds beneath beds, unexplored
Where watery matter, like space, like time,
Is infinite; fountains spewing endlessly,
wetter than wet, with walls greener than lime,
And alien sea forms, by mermen deplored.

Passing Hades
Upon Charon’s boat we sail, while
Through the deadly waters, his punt pole
Pokes the infested shallows, where
Dead men float, pale faces turned up,
To gloat at the living, who too shall soon
Be in this hole, forgotten.
Then, why visit I this Hel?
Why? I want only its sounds, to tell.

The Fire Beacon
Here, where an island grew between seas,
A stone altar steeply piled up,
Here beneath blackened sky,
Zarathustra lit his mountain fire,
The beacon for mariners driven off course,
The question mark for those who have answers ...
This flame with a white-grey belly —
Flickers its greedy tongue into the cold beyond,
Bends its neck towards ever purer heights —
A raised serpent of impatience:
This signal I placed before me.
My soul is this flame,
Insatiable for new expanses
To blaze upward, upward in silent passion.
Why did Zarathustra flee from animals and men?
Why did he run away suddenly from all settled lands?
Six solitudes he knew already —
But the sea itself was not lonely enough for him,
The island let him rise, on the mountain he became the flame,
Into a seventh solitude
Searching now, he casts a hook over his head.
Lost mariners! Wreckage of ancient stars!
You seas of the future! Unexplored sky!
Now I cast my hook towards all solitary ones:
Give an answer to the impatience of the flame,
Catch me, fisherman on high mountains,
My seventh ultimate solitude! — —
[Friedrich Nietzsche]

Accost the Sacred
There are places so sacred,
That even the gods won’t go.
There are no fences around them,
But these places are impenetrable,
Like virgin forests and undiscovered
Jungles.
Where all incomers will get lost.
Never to return.
Only a few yearn to enter.
They tremble with a cold lust,
Breathlessly aching to accost
The hitherto unfingered altar.

Storms Ov Steel
Can flesh and bone withstand
Storms of steel?
Can wounds, unstaunched
Forever bleed,
And never heal?
