Arthur Rimbaud - Vowels (Alt. Trans.) lyrics

Black A, White E, Red I, Green U, Blue O: Vowels. Someday I'll explain your burgeoning births: A, a corset; black and hairy, buzzing with flies Bumbling like bees around a merciless stench, And shadowy gulfs; E, white vapors and tents, proud Glacial peaks, white kings, shivering Queen Anne's lace; I, purples, bloody spittle, lips' lovely lighter In anger or drunken contrition; U, cycles, divine vibrations of viridian seas; Peace of pastures sown with beasts, wrinkles Stamped on studious brows as if by alchemy; O, that last Trumpet, overflowing with strange discord, Silences bridged by Worlds and Angels: -O the Omega, the violet beam from His Eyes!
