Ah, not to be cut off,
not through the slightest partition
shut out from the law of the stars.
The inner---what is it?
if not intensified sky,
hurled through with buds and deep
with the winds of homecoming
Rainer Maria Rilke
Ah, Not to be Cut off
I really love the poetry you choose. Thanks. I feel like I'm reconnecting with my English major roots.
