Images: Mila Gee Music: “Sad Piano and Strings“ by WavePacket “I do not think, or argue, or complain. Or sleep. I long for neither sun, nor moon, nor sea. Nor ship. I do not feel the heat amidst these walls, Nor garden’s green, Nor do I long for your desired gift, Foreseen. Neither the morning gladdens nor the trolley’s Ring-singing run. I live, forgetting date and age And daylight sun. I am – a dancer on a tightrope slashed And hewn. I am – a shadow’s shadow: lunatic Of two dark moons. “ 1914 Translated from the Russian by Ekaterina Rogalsky
