I had a dream which was not all a dream
The bright sun was extinguished
And the stars did wander darkling in the eternal space
Rayless and pathless and the icy earth
Swung blind and blackening in the moonless air
Morn came and went and came and brought no day
And war which for a moment was no more
Did glut himself again
A meal was bought with blood
And each sate sullenly apart
Gorging himself in gloom
No love was left
All earth was but one thought
And that was death
The bright sun was extinguished
And the stars did wander darkling in the eternal space
Gorging himself in gloom
No love was left
All earth was but one thought
And that was death
