ghizela rowe - emma lazarus - evil in design كلمات أغنية

the close_twined branches interlock o’erhead
’twixt leaf and leaf no ray, no glimpse of blue
from the live roof is gray_green twilight shed
heavily clings at noon the dull chill dew;
the snake_like roots of the large trees break through
the black, moist sod; rank weeds spread everywhere
damp shadow and mirk vapors fill the air
a yellowish pool hath slowly filtered here
from drop and ooze and frequent wash of rains:
no lapse of living waters greets the ear
thick crust of slime its sluggish surface stains
here silence dwells—a vague, wild terror gains
the soul before this mystery divine
evil in action, evil in design
the poisoned flower hath overwrought the brain
the wood seems peopled with strange images
huge forms uncouth in slow, unending train
life’s terrors and its nameless miseries
now like a sullen mist between the trees
now close and threatening, distinct and near
while hateful discords grate upon the ear
sin, madness, poverty, disease, and age
and, halting last, the unmixed evil, death
how near to her they come, life’s heritage
of ancient ills! no outlet openeth:
her wil cry echoes far above, beneath
fills the thick air with trouble, wanes and dies
meeting the hollow earth and empty skies
