Ladies Wearing Hose And Girdles

Leave me alone, Love tyrant

are aiming for and wise blind, decrepit
god, and rapacious, blindfolded
I've sold,
and adult child:
for the soul of your mother that
died, being immortal,
envious of my wife
not chase me more.
Leave me alone, Love tyrant
leave me alone.

Suffice time
wasted
I followed, to my regret your restless
flags,
outlaw captain.
Forgive, Love, here,
I forgive you because there
four coats of patience, ten
advantage in love.
Leave me alone, Love tyrant
leave me alone.

Amadores unhappy
militia who follow such
tell me what
good guide a blind man can get? From a bird
what strength? What hope
a raptor? What
award of a nude?
of a tyrant, what is piety?
Leave me alone, Love tyrant
leave me alone.

Ten years wasted,
the best of my age to be a farmer
Love
at the expense of my flow.
As plowed and planted, picked,
plowed an altered sea
planted a barren sand,
took shame and desire.
Leave me alone, Love tyrant
leave me alone.

fabricated
A tower of the wind in the rarity,
that of Nimrod, and confusion
alike. Gloria
called off,
to prison, freedom,
sweet honey bitter aloes,
beginning to end, good and evil.
Leave me alone, Love tyrant
leave me alone.
