Who cometh unto Satan?
Life is a heavy-bosom woman.
Her hemlock seeds shew upon me,
But her roots
I dare not touch –
For I flirt
But never caress;
For I am death.
I dare not pluck her orchard groves,
Yet I tempt her in faith,
As does the wicked charmer –
For through me he works his
Crucifixion.
Life is a heavy-bosom woman,
Whom I have hung.
Life is a woman –
The holy spirit’s son.
