superbe travail graphique... mais j'ai l'impression que la mort a trois rangées de dents?...

C'est amusant, on dirait presque une inversion des rôles. Alors que le bûcheron, dans la fable, est croulant, offert tout entier à son dernier souffle, il est ici presque fringant, il semble encore vigoureux; tandis que la mort que l'on a l'habitude de montrer impitoyable, pleine de son immortalité, apparaît ici frêle tel un vieillard fatigué aux pas incertains. Peut-être use-t-elle de sournoiserie ^^

Dans la candeur de l'aube naissante, tu t'avances,
Longeant la forêt de l'oubli;
Sous tes pas timides mais nerveux l'herbe danse,
Au gré sévère d'un vent maudit.

And if you never existed
Tell me why I would have ever existed
To live in a world without you
Without hope and without regret...
