Longing For Immortality Poem by Mihaela Pirjol

Vertical skeletons

undulating lasciviously

in diabolical religious rhythms,

seducing Eternity:

mortal flirtation

seducing Immortality,

in an imploration

for a Life they despise,

scorning Fate;

in their innermost

unuttered screams

scream for Universal Knowledge:

these superior animals

claiming supremacy

from an indifferent Universe:

ignorance is the response;

as insignificant

as any other creature

populating this planet

Earth—leading to earth.
