Angels ride on the backs of turtles,
the fate of men is to stone the rose.
Another madman will die tomorrow:
none but the grave will know
of his bloody eyes.

Poems from the Madhouse of Mondragon - II
Angels ride on the backs of turtles,
the fate of men is to stone the rose.
Another madman will die tomorrow:
none but the grave will know
of his bloody eyes.
