“We’ve been struck by a harsh summer, where the heat of the sun was at its maximum temperature. Thus, while it seems that we are entering the winter season, I thought of wrapping this poem in a surreal style, with a pint of mythology — which is a subject that inspires me a lot.”
Gloomy Season It is the gloomy season — Mosses, rain, darkness And everything that’s cold rule A noir design explode in my heart And within my veins, in my blood Red turns into black, into night While they whisper in my ears I shiver out of fear, stupefied As they summon beasts in my mind A noir design devours Helios Trailing it three miles away Inside of its dimensional chariot While the gloomy season Crowns the winter emperor With the coronal of icicles Clothing it of a fur coat And of skeletal ornaments The mermaids chant hysterically Summoning salty creatures, those That rest beside the mistress of seas — Wars of tentacles and shimmering scales It’s the bitter end of halcyon days And on wetlands the cold becomes colder While cities go to sleep in tears Saddened by their heartbreaks A noir design sets the world ablaze In its embrace, boiling lagoons And trees burning. Its trees, Murder, she then wrote Shooting meteors stopped on track They become ice to explode miles away Shattering on earth as hailstones on roof It is the gloomy season — Mosses, rain, darkness And everything that’s cold rule.
