Georg Trakl - To The SilencedGeorg Trakl - To The Silenced
Work rating: Low


Oh, the great city`s madness when at nightfall The crippled trees gape by the blackened wall, The spirit of evil peers from a silver mask; Lights with magnetic scourge drive off the stony night. Oh, the sunken pealing of evening bells. Whore who in her icy shivers sheds a still-born child. With raving whips God`s fury punishes brows possessed. Purple pestilence, hunger that breaks green eyes. Oh, the horrible laughter of gold. But silent in dark caves a stiller humanity bleeds, Out of hard metals moulds the redeeming head.
