V / Vex / To Anacreon (Strangling the Muse)
Curse the day
Lacerate the sense with excruciating rage Flood the range of sights anew with torrents of your shame
Determined in our solace, we must face the barren night Chorus of Olympus, rise above these earthly lights Surging through my head as I proceed to look beyond This mockery, this poverty, this paltry state of mind
An ominous rumble through the parting of the clouds and the sullen dead trees The maddening strains, the rapturous timbre of Anacreon's lyre
Hysterical shouts from a place far beyond my sight But I can hear them clearly as my path is torched with Dionysian flames
Surrender not to the resentment of the day Your spirit needn't be trampled in this way
This terrible farce, this ignoble place You've lost your way, now bereft of grace
The night went on, the cloak was raised, the air was crisp and clear Glasses full, the gods were praised in revelry and cheer Cast away this wasteful day and scorn upon the Muse Drown the cursed sounds of whores whose songs are of no use
