From:
Like the shaman
Who ingratiates himself
With the deity
Of the animal he hunts
Seeking possession
With the spirit of the beast:
So the innocents
Pervaded with the spirit
Of the great predator
- Princeps huius mundi -
Though burnt in our pyres
Will transcend time
Soaring over
Physical extinction
