Hieronymus

I have seen eyes in the trees
I heard the devil howl
Got down on my knees and prayed
But I went back for more
My appetite is whet

I recall in my childhood
You aroused in me
Thoughts of no good
I used to melt
Into hell, liquefy

My appetite is whet for
Hieronymus, I walk with you
When I'm sleeping
When I wake up in your world
I'm not dreaming
And when I melt
I can go anywhere
Slip under the door unawares

I have a thousand eyes, Hieronymus
I have seen angels loving
On a bed of nails
Distant drumming
I used to melt
First my eyes, then my soul
My appetite is whet...
