Re: Light
When the world dissolves in its own chemicals
And the people’s bodies are as ghostly as the particles
discovered by Josephson in 1962, which pass through walls
like light through air,
And the people’s buildings are born again as blueprints, and the
print is invisible and the blue is the blue of the innocent
amnesiac sea,
And the hardwood trees, falling in forests everywhere, their
fractured branches tangled like a woman’s hair after love,
make no sound not because they are not heard but because
there is no longer anything for them to land on and thud
against
We were in a country devastated by war—
they’d crippled even the dolls of children.
The light, quick and strong,
bit into everything, turned it to stone.
We walked among bicycles and kites,
watched the colors, but our talk
strayed to that festering horror.
–George Seferis, “Letter to Rex Warner”
Often, during combat, the warrior of light receives blows that he was not expecting. And he realizes that, during a war, his enemy is bound to win some of the battles. When this happens, the warrior of light weeps bitter tears and rests in order to recover his energies a little. But he immediately resumes the battle for his dreams.[/FONT][/COLOR]
Anybody got a light
