...and when I shall be banned
for eavesdropping
on the devil’s magic words
and thrown on the shore
during the storm
for having desired immortality
for having believed I could get it
for having listened to his words
pronounced there before the stormy sea
on the dock

I shall be punished
to mix among common people
never to hear God’s voice again...

...to walk in confusion
through the stormy darkness
inside and outside me...

...all these for having eavesdropped
on the devil’s secret incantations
his magical formulae
believed to be able to bring
immortality on him and maybe me...

...how could I believe such a lie?
...immortality was never meant for me...
...is knowledge that crazy devil?...
