"The Prophet at the instant of his birth placed his left hand on the ground, and raising his right hand to heaven, pronounced the formula of the creed respecting the divine unity, and such light beamed from his mouth that the people of Mecca saw the houses of Shaam and their environs, the red dwellings of Yemen, and the white palaces of Istakhar in Fars."

Your heart's subway rumbles through my abandoned station,
Pass my silent platform, fleeting, without hesitation.
Drop your gaze along the tracks where my form lies bare,
Then vanish like a phantom, leave no whisper in the air.
Electric thoughts spark tremors through your wanting
frame,
Your wild imagination burns with pleasure's sacred flame.
In sweet delirium you surge, your passion breaks like thunder,
With one shuddering moment claim victory, blind to my wonder.
Art: "An Idyll", Rupert Bunny (29 September 1864 – 25 May 1947), Australian

"Not long ago the rain walked through this clearing
Like a surveyor. Now with tinsel bait
The lily of the valley's leaves are weighted.
And water got into the mullein's ears.
These are the frigid fir trees' quondam nurslings,
Their ear lobes stretched with dew; they shun the day.
And grow apart, single and solitary.
Even their odors separately disbursed.
When it is teatime in the summer villas,
The fog fills the mosquito's sail, and night.
Plucking the strings of a guitar but lightly.
Stands among pansies in a mistlike milk.
Then with nocturnal violet all is scented.
Faces and years. And thoughts. Every event
That from the thievish past can be commanded
And in the future taken from Fate’s hand."
- "Lyubka", Boris Pasternak
