The big animals : despondent
at table : unsated.
But the small cunning flies
scrambling up slopes of bread
inherit Buttertown.
*
There is
only one
true thing :
in the self
a weight,
a small
stone.
*
An eye
that sees.
Another eye
that feels.
*
Man-Animal :
Clock of Blood.
*
The moon
in the railway station : one of the many
lights in the forest ; a drop
in the mountain's beard :
that it doesn't trickle !
that it is not pierced by the cactus thorn !
that you
do not sneeze, and
burst
this bladder !
(From his diary, written in 1914, probably soon after war had been declared.)
