“the train plunges on through the pitch-black night
I never knew I liked the night pitch-black
sparks fly from the engine
I didn't know I loved sparks
I didn't know I loved so many things and I had to wait until sixty to find it out sitting by the window on the Prague-Berlin train watching the world disappear as if on a journey of no return”
― Nazim Hikmet

off the coast
there was

a splash quite unnoticed
this was
Icarus drowning”
― William Carlos Williams
