Richter: Shadow Journal |
How enduring, how we need durability |
The sky before sunrise is soaked with light |
Rosy colour tints buildings, bridges, and the Seine |
I was here when she with whom I walk wasn’t born yet |
And the cities on a distant plain stood intact |
Before they rose in the air with the dust of sepulchral brick |
And the people who lived there didn’t know |
Only this moment, at dawn, is real to me |
The bygone lives are like my own past life, uncertain |
I cast a spell on the city, asking it to last |
