Midnight estate, Genghis Khanerate! Rustle, blue birches. Bright sunset, Zarathustrate! And you, blue sky, Mozartate! You twilight-cloud, be Goya! And you at night, cloud, rainate! A whirlwind of smiles just flew by, Laughing with claws of shrieking, Then I saw the hangman And surveyed boldly the midnight hush. And I called you, bold-featured, And he brought the drowned back from the river. "Their forget-me-not is louder than a scream," - I told the sail of night. The earth's axis splashed out another day, Night's bulk is closing in. I dreamed I saw a salmon-girl In the waves of a midnight waterfall. The pines are Tatared by the tempest And the Mongol rainclouds move, Yet words close in, Cains of silence, - And these saints are fallen. And with his guard blue Hasdrubal Walked heavily to the stone ball.
