Maybe you'll remember that razor-faced man who slipped out from the dark like a blade and -- before we realized -- knew what was there: he saw the smoke and concluded fire.
The pallid woman with black hair rose like a fish from the abyss, and the two of them built up a contraption, armed to the teeth, against love.
Man and woman, they felled mountains and gardens, they went down to the river, they scaled the walls, they hoisted their atrocious artillery up the hill.
Then love knew it was called love. And when I lifted my eyes to your name, suddenly your heart showed me my way.
