Aber die Dunkelheit hält alles an sich:
Gestalten und Flammen, Tiere und mich,
wie sie's errafft,
Menschen und Mächte –

Und es kann sein: eine große Kraft
rührt sich in meiner Nachbarschaft.

Ich glaube an Nächte.

~Rainer Maria Rilke



I. Ayvazovsky (1879)

I am just a dandelion, a weed they say,
Blow gently and see what I can do,
For I am full of wishes along with dreams
That one day could come true.

past the drowned caves.
We turned left at the border...
