quote	I Life goes by moving, Up and down a chain of moods Wanting what’s nothing. II My soul is the wind Dashing down fields of Autumn: O, too swift to sing. III I shall spend my moods Like a rose discards leaves And die without moods. IV My ears burn for speech And you lie cold and silent. Supinely cruel: V Look at the white moon The sphinx does not question more. Turn away your eyes. VI The poetry of life? NO, the picture of my dreams Flashing on my heart. (en)
