He had grown completely wild

A terrible loathing had transformed his face

Into a petrified, tragic mask

No longer in possession of that power of resistance

No longer in possession of that power of resistance

Which protects the healthy

From the fascination of loathing

He moved with the many limbed, complicated movements

Of a strange ritual

He had grown completely wild

A terrible loathing had transformed his face

Into a petrified, tragic mask

No longer in possession of that power of resistance

Which protects the healthy

From the fascination of loathing

He had grown completely wild

A terrible loathing had transformed his face

Into a petrified, tragic mask

No longer in possession of that power of resistance

No longer in possession of that power of resistance

Which protects the healthy

From the fascination of loathing

He moved with the many limbed, complicated movements

Of a strange ritual

He moved with the many limbed, complicated movements

Of a strange ritual

The ceremonial crawl of the cockroach.
