📚Finished reading: Poems to Night by Rainer Maria Rilke
“With slow step, not light, his body ruminative,
but when stood, his wonderful bearing. Even now a
God
could furtively enter that figure and be no less.”
“I stood and suddenly
became aware, you approached me, played with me, I
understood,
grown-up night, and I gazed at you enraptured.”
“From face to face
what rising up.
From the guilty breaks out
sacrifice and forgiveness…
Suddenly the angels see the harvest.”
Gorgeous from start to finish.
