Lurking Behind the Facade

To be spoken silently In that unpleasant tumult Lurking behind the facade He does not suspect in what wild fear He'll join with her in a fatal play Thus he sees his life as an outrageous fortune Like thunder shuttering orisons The demented contempt of a puny mind Repudiated into self negation And subjugated himself into an empty shell Infused into such subjective depositions That leaves him with no refuge
