A Ballad about a Boy in DarknessThere are no magical dwarfs at all, God how can I fall asleep tonight when darkness enfolds the room, when nobody guards the night anymore. Under my bed, a chamber-pot and shoes-- a ploughman lies slit by a pocketknife. The train has stopped because the tracks are bent, and the carriage's wheel barbarous off. The palace went to pieces. The building obstructs are scattered. Everywhere is glass, clay, paper scraps, and sawdust, but in the moonlight this garbage move rounds to silver and gold. How can you help, dead moon so faraway, and unreal! Now the dread begins! In the backyard a drunkard stands with an ax, what does it matter that the secondary planet shines for him, he is ready to kill his wife and children. How can the satellite move and soften him? In the annex an elderly man cries out-- someone stole a diamond from his trunk Policemen knock upon the door. They come screaming to arrest the thief and turn back the diamond to the advanced in years man. Now the old man is fine, but the thief is doing badly, badly. How can you help, dead moon so faraway, and unreal! What can you do to change things? The stripling climbs down from the bed and cries. He can't rest anymore tonight. He wants to repair the of gold carriage, wake up the dead soldiers, and set the wheel back on the train so it can ride upon the tracks again. He wants to rebuild his palace and plant the elephants on their feet but fire enfolds the whole house. Wind breaks the windows, snatches the cover and carries it away. How can you help, dead moon so faraway, and unreal! What can you do to change things? The male child stands in flames and cries.
