As if a poet were writing his greatest poem with ink that instantly disappears. ↗

Dari ar mani, ko gribi. Bet dari. Tūkstoš sejas man saplūst par vienu- par vienu laimīgo tavu, par tādu, kādu es gribu un varu to padarīt. Nē, nevis gribu. Vai tad debesīs iesniedzies tornis ko grib ? Viņš ir, un viņš citādi nevar. Dari ar mani, ko gribi. Nē, esi. Esi tāds, kāds tu citādi nevari. ↗
