Everyman 

1. It all happens within a blink of an eye;                                                                          

2. you see thyself mourning and deepest inside of you screaming Lucifer's sigh.      

3. You know you should have chosen God's grace,

4. but Humanism had filled you with wrath because you couldn't reach his mighty sacred place.                                                                       

5. You have laughed over and over about the myth of Actaeon The Legendary Huntsman who was turned into a stag;

thus, mutilated by his own hounds. Thats all for the sake of peeping at Goddess Artemis while she was bathing nude.             

6. Still, you would die to conquer Helen's heart although you know how she had empires collapsed in a moment of a bitter mood.                       

7. Since eternity everyman is scratching back and forth trying to break his shell      

8. "Well  Master of Minds after no more doubt, Intellectuality in everyman is demanding to know if earth is just another God's Hell ?"             

9. Once again Everyman is accused of being covetous for he had true love to adore,

10. but he's so gluttonous and did not see it for he thought his old lover would give him more.                                                                                       

11. It calls to weep that everyman went deep blind that his sight is nothing but a complete blur.                                                                             

12. "No forgiveness is allowed after the cup you've chosen sir !"                            

13. Yet, what price everyman would pay to obtain the power of reading lines?         

14. "Had humanism made him think of nothing but worldly filthiest times?"         

15. Everyman do not ask me who I am or accuse me of casting terror                 

16. for I am you anytime you consider " talking" to a mirror.
