The soul of black

Lorenz

 Soul of black on the battlefield

silence descends on the mass grave

wandering bodies freed  from suffering 

in seach of peace and forgiveness .

Soul of black, long cortege,eternity rainy requiem

hard sun burning the old temple ruins

stand the crucified ,impudent tortured flesh.

Mothers, daughters,sisters ,of all  departures.

Soul of black ,dried  blood  religion 

priests, exorcists,friars ,crow clad 

executioner's  hidden face and axe  .

Soul of black ,dark sentinel-eyed birds

raptors awaiting  their spoils .

 Soul of black ,creatures  of the afterlife

reflections in the fathomless swamp 

vampires  and incubi of the night .

Soul of black on the decomposed leper 

his pestiferous brother and all the forgotten ones.

On this earth ,amidst ,tears,cries and the end 

only remains the soul of  black ...
