Retribution
Even in death let me contemplate you
Where you are in void sockets framed in bone
The brain all dried out, my features unkwown
In life or death before, weighted by you
Even in death, I do not dream of you
As being true, nor sorry that I'm gone
While all your courtiers trample on my throne:
The little world of dreams by which I view
Them as maggots migrating through your pores
And you moaning, a fragment on the shores
Will fill the vacant vortex my soul soars -
From death, for suff'ring love's spite without cures
Cannot suffer yet again your disgiust
When death too becomes tennant of your lust.
