Georg Trakl

At Night

***

The blueness dies out in my eyes tonight,

the red gold of my heart. O how still the light burns!

Your cloak of sadness encircles the long descent.

Your red lips seal your friend’s unhinging.

***

Close your eyes -

Landlord knocking

On the back door.

***

Postdata - Drift

Jack Kerouac

***

Early morning yellow flowers,

thinking about

the drunkards of Mexico.
