This life has become an illusion,

as tormented dreams wrestle with Jacob's descendants,

lilies fall silent when the winds of blurry darkness hit them;

rain is no longer productive, for it overflows and causes roads

from Ancient Roman Times begin to crumble;

former lovers, who claim to be strangers, have given up on love;

for their desire to be with one another is no longer poetic;

but muted, so no one else can find the frequency to their epic battle;

be still,

for earthquakes cry out in pain because no one heeds their warnings,

yet, this life yields mysteries before a blind man's eyes,

unfortunately, we are ignoring him because our time is limited to folly,

where even the nectar's bark is always sweet;

and vinegar is never added except for pleasure;

however, spoiled grapes are used to dilute the good taste of wine.
