The word of going down deep that we have read. The years, the words since then. We still are who we are. You know space is infinite, you know there is no need to fly, you know: what wrote itself into your eye deepens us into depth. – Paul Celan From Die Niemandsrose (1963).

You are light: you will sleep through my Spring till it’s over.

I am lighter:

in front of strangers I sing.
