Chorus of Clouds We are full of sighs, full of glances, We are full of laughter And sometimes we wear your faces. We are not far from you. Who knows how much of your blood rose And stained us? Who knows how many tears you have shed Because of our weeping? How much longing formed us? We play at dying, Accustom you gently to death. You, the inexperienced, who learn nothing in the nights. Many angels are given you But you do not see them.

Waldemar made a big sentimental scene with me before he left. He begged me to come with them. I refused. Tears came into his eyes. We Aryans have to stand together, he said.

The luminous weep, if only over those in darkness.
