To be modern means to like antique furniture - and youthful neurosis.
Hugo von HofmannsthalTags: modern
So las ich falsch in deinem Aug, dem tiefen?
Kein heimlich Sehnen sah ich heiß dort funkeln?
Es birgt zu deiner Seele keine Pforte
Dein feuchter Blick? Die Wünsche, die dort schliefen,
Wie stille Rosen in der Flut, der dunkeln,
Sind, wie dein Plaudern: seellos... Worte, Worte?
the activity of modern poets stands under the decree of necessity, as though they were building a pyramid, the monstruos residence of a dead King or an unborn God.
Hugo von HofmannsthalWas weiß denn ich vom Menschenleben?
Bin freilich scheinbar drin gestanden,
Aber ich hab es höchstens verstanden,
Konnte mich nie darein verweben.
Thoughts are apples on the tree,
Not meant for anyone in particular,
But they end up belonging
To the one who takes them.

Your little sister
Has tossed her
Untied hair forward
Like a living veil,
Like a fragrant hedge,
And peers, with such eyes!
Through a fragrant veil,
Through a dark hedge ...
How sweet it is to only
Think of such little things.
Fruits have ripened
On all the longing branches
In your nightly garden,
Chinese lanterns like red fruits
Sway and illuminate
The longing branches
Rustled by the night wind
In your little garden ...
How sweet it is to only
Think of such little things.
