desire

 

desire:

Oh let me live true

And really die once,
...
So I touch reality

In evil as in good

.

And let me be still

And reverence what I see,

so this may be this

and nothing more.



If the long life

A single day was left,

When I examined the beautiful

As life on earth has.

The most beautiful thing on earth

Is the only honesty;

But that alone makes life to life



And reality.

Such is the wide world

And the cup rests

A drop of water clear.

The only thing still drop

Is life's eye.

Oh, make me worthy to see in it!

Oh, make me clean
