There have been some great abstract music videos lately. Here’s one.

The Visitor
He came from the mountains into this
Garden. Welcome, sir, all that I have is yours.
He came from the mountains, he spied
The kind shade. He sate with me under the oak tree.
What have you done in the mountains, sir,
Besides hunting the white deer all day?
In the mountains I hunted and I plotted
Your garden’s destruction and ruin.
In the mountains I hunted a similitude
To obtain your trusting mood.
Therefore I slay you as
You dream of the friendship I bear.
Said the man from the mountains the mountains
Who came to visit me here.
But I shall, as I look only upward
My star being set in the mountains,
Said the man, the man from the mountains,
See only the fair garden that I murdered here
Said the man the man from the mountains.
David Schubert
