on a roll...

ah... life. its a funny thing. always changing, never boring, and even kinda humorous if you dont take it too seriously.... it will all come out in the wash. just sometimes you need to add bleach.

another of my fav poets right now... the german Rilke, enjoy.


As Once The Winged Energy - Rainer Maria Rilke
As once the winged energy of delight
carried you over childhood's dark abysses,
now beyond your own life build the great
arch of unimagined bridges.

Wonders happen if we can succeed
in passing through the harshest danger;
but only in a bright and purely granted
achievement can we realize the wonder.

To work with Things in the indescribable
relationship is not too hard for us;
the pattern grows more intricate and subtle,
and being swept along is not enough.

Take your practiced powers and stretch them out
until they span the chasm between two
contradictions... For the god wants
to know himself in you.
