My unusual dream of motion and fervour
to expertise your common drama,
O Daughter of the Sacred Mountain,
fountain of self-luminosity,
you could have introduced dying close to me.
My childhood handed in playfulness,
my later years had been video games of restricted love,
and now age has slowed my steps
until I now not dance with delusion.

“Holy Mom! Holy Mom!
Grant me pure love for you solely!
into your lovely black thriller.”
