A true poet does not say 'azure'; a true poet says 'blue.

Du weißt doch, was ich von der Liebe halte. Wäre sie eine Fahne, ich würde sie erobern oder für sie fallen.

At home I have a blue piano.
But I can’t play a note.

It’s been in the shadow of the cellar door
Ever since the world went rotten.

Four starry hands play harmonies,
The Woman in the Moon sang in her boat.
Now only rats dance to the clanks.

The keyboard is in bits.
I wept for what is blue. Is dead.

Sweet angels, I have eaten
Such bitter bread. Push open
The door of heaven. For me, for now-
Although I am still alive-
Although it is not allowed

Please lift your snowy skies
off my soul -

Your diamond dreams
slice through my veins
