Poem reads:
Temptation,
Fornication,
Total damnation.
These were the beguiling enchantments laced upon the lips of everyone who entered the house of madmen and dreamers. Armored to the teeth with blood stained poppies and strange proclivities, abandon all hope ye who enter here. For once you enter the inverted world of ecstasy and pleasure, your innocence becomes irrevocable. Lost amongst the twinkling goblin lights, the devil's serpentine eyes, and wine induced stupors. If you gaze long enough into the abyss, the abyss gazes back with wandering eyes made for seduction and honeysuckle kisses. Come ye sinners, poor and needy. Step over the threshold into the world underground. Let your wishes run rampant between the twirling and whirling of flowered frocks and feverish brocades. Give yourself body and soul, whole and entire to Der Erlkönig. The king of mischievous deeds, an austere young man, my immortal beloved.
