On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door.

Or see the trees we cut down for our view.
What we possessed we always chose to kill.

like a bird I'm having evil thoughts,
A black hood covers my face
as death flows through my mind at its own pace.

Are ye, two vultures sick for battle,
Two scorpions under one wet stone,
Two bloodless wolves whose dry throats rattle,
Two crows perched on the murrained cattle,
Two vipers tangled into one.
