Nativity

NATIVITY
At a warm nativity
Is written a cold mortality
And in solitary wait the reaper
To harvest as he wish and gather

At the very warm cradle
Already the mourners trouble
Their faces an actor’s mask
To hold their hypocritical task

And above in heavenly nest
In full and total earnest
The lord already selects his seed
To cast away according to deed.
