THE INHERITANCE OF CAIN

Cains pass through the world,

leave traces of pride,

they ignore the advice of the wise,

they get lost in their labyrinth;

they give off resentments as they walk.

They get intoxicated;

they can´t stand that the affection of their loved ones

run away to others.

Nothing convinces them;

not even the whole universe makes them change their minds.

Their inflexibility attracts madness,

awakening the tiger in their heart.

“Sleep feline,

misfortunes will come”.

The raging sea roars,

Judas is born from its waves;

there is no limit to his fury.

Stay away dove

or the deluge will sweep you away!

If your peace is insufficient,

and does not anchor in a good port,

transcends its honor;

is glorified in eternity.
