I had a dream yester night,
The dream of dark night,
Darker than Black page,
When I was howling and wailing,
Crying and weeping and calling Thy name,
I had a dream yester night of finding a way
In the dreadful silent night towards the light,
Held I in my dream pen and paper to write,
No matter, how long shall darkness be,
The dawn will appear to assassinate nihilism.
