Here is to Fear

For keeping us alert.

And here is to Sleep

For making understand.



- here's to the crowning roots

(placing us nowhere).

- here's to the laughable wings

(taking us nowhere).



Here's to the Eve

Of the Day which will never come.

And here's to Retreat

To ease the pain.



Here's to Resistance

(laughing at ourselves)

Here's to Defeat

- how dare you come so late?



The cup is empty

Shall be filled no more

And all the thirsty

Can now approach...



The antidote.
