    Consumed
    Heavy weighted chains
    Past indescretions
    Hover over me
    Like a vulture,ready,
    Always ready
    To glide down
    On heavy wings-
    To consume me.
    Like the eagle that
    Tears out the liver
    Of Prometheus
    I am not as cursed as he-
    The pieces of my soul
    That predator carries away
    Stay gone

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
