-To walk-
Barefoot on the sodden grass in
Hessian robes and cilices
Eyes contemplating an olive grove
-Corroded crucifixes-
Throwing their shadows
During Happy Hour
Pale yellow melting on soft Spanish stone
-Crystal shards and polished glass-
From the jade bottle flows the blood of life
From the steeple a bell tolls
Barefoot on the sodden grass in
Hessian robes and cilices
Eyes contemplating an olive grove
-Corroded crucifixes-
Throwing their shadows
During Happy Hour
Pale yellow melting on soft Spanish stone
-Crystal shards and polished glass-
From the jade bottle flows the blood of life
From the steeple a bell tolls
