The sun
Is going down
On a calm
Welcoming
Blue ocean

Lucky sun

It is long past
The time for drama

The endless
Pathetic going round
And round seeking
A higher moral ground
For what after all
Is simple pleasure

So close the doors
Put the candles out
Leave the window open
To bring in the evening air

Tomorrow
We can return to being
No more than
Mortals wandering

In futile posturing
‘til the end

The mood is expressed very well here. The message, well, one has to be in a certain mood.
