mnowsa: very original. isn't it?
Yes, one of my favourite poets. This one's great:
I am restless, I am thirsty for far away things My soul rambles in longing to touch the dark hem of the world. Oh great aeons, oh impetuous calls of your flute, I forget, I ever forget, That I have no wings to fly, that I am bound to this piece of Earth for all time.
I am much in need and watchful, I am a stranger in a foreign land; Your spirit comes to me and whispers impossible hopes. Your familiar voice rings in my ears like you are here. Oh distant goal, oh impetuous calls of your flute, I forget, I ever forget, That I do not know the way, That I do not have a high spirited horse.
I am restless, I am a wanderer in my heart. In the sun flecked mist of the uncertain hours What huge pictures of you form in the blue sky. Oh immensity, oh impetuous calls of your flute. I forget, I ever forget, that the doors are everywhere closed in the house where I live alone, oh immensity, Oh impetuous calls of your flute.
