Melancholia
Living this life
is riding a monster
The skeleton is dressed
in meat
I refuse to call it "I"
From inside
your heart may explode
From outside
an extra-solar traveller
may hit
The trusting little child
in his warm bed
at nightfall
is fooled
There is a Melancholia*
rising
in all of us
*Lars von Trier: Melancholia (2011)
