(Swans - September 24, 2007)  

I read my sentence Mitsamt meinen Steinen
den grossgeweintenhinter den Gittern
with my crying stones behind bars

en la tiniebla... la espada
los caminos de sangre que no veo
in the darkness weapon
through these invisible blood roads
I read my sentence

 

 

Drawing: Giuseppe Quattrocchi, Volto crudele (2007)
