All treasures of the earth
Are here under my feet.
The symbol of rebirth,
I can’t withstand this heat.
..
You’ve kissed so many spears,
Blinded so many hearts.
My cozy sepulchers.
My jilted Bonapartes.
Is that just what I’ve earned?
How can I ask for more?
You’ll burn me like you’ve burned
All of my kin before.
The symbol of rebirth,
I live under a stone.
The irony, my earth.
The solitude, your throne.
