Death is a talented poet,

It has its own language,

It requires astute readers

And attentive critics.

It has hermetic

And sophisticated verses.

It makes no concessions

And doesn't use easy rhymes.

It requires parchment art of illuminations.

Its translators groping

Blindly and hungry.

It is useless to rush 

To decode its writing.

It requires skill

Of an old alchemies.

And an expert calligrapher.

It is a master at preparing

Pens and paints.

Death engenders

Its own library.
