wearied by daytime wanderings,
i sometimes leave all this vanity behind
to remember the wounds of those sufferings,
to churn up the former dreams... --
if i could only breathe into her soul
spring joy on a winter day --
but, no, why, oh why, should i destroy
her childish ease -- --
it is enough for my soul to soar
up to her heavenly heights,
where we sometimes have a glimpse of joy -- --
though it is meant -- not for us. -- -- --
(30 october 1898) --

i enter dark temples
and celebrate a poor rite.
i await there the Beautiful Lady
in the glow of red lamps. --

"when the starry sky, a vista of open seas or a stained glass window shedding purple beams fascinate me, there is a cluster of meaning, of colors, of words, of caresses, there are light touches, scents, sighs, cadences that arise, shroud me, carry me away, and sweep me beyond the things that i see, hear, or think.
the "sublime" object dissolves in the raptures of a bottomless memory. it is such a memory, which, from stopping point to stopping point, remembrance to remembrance, love to love, transfers that object to the refulgent point of the dazzlement in which i stray in order to be.
as soon as i perceive it, as soon as i name it, the sublime triggers -- it has always already triggered -- a spree of perceptions and words that expands memory boundlessly.
i then forget the point of departure and find myself removed to a secondary universe, set off from the one where "i" am delight and loss. not at all short of but always with and through perception and words, the sublime is a something added that expands us, overstrains us, and causes us to be both here, as dejects, and there, as others and sparkling.
a divergence, an impossible bounding. everything missed,
joy -- fascination."
