At the heart of all great art is an essential melancholy.
Ditty of First Desire In the green morning I wanted to be a heart. A heart. And in the ripe evening I wanted to be a nightingale. A nightingale. (Soul, turn orange-colored.

The sun came through the shuttered balcony and the coral of life opened its branches over my shrouded heart.

Weeps arrow without target evening without morning and the first dead bird on the branch. Oh, guitar! Heart mortally wounded by five swords.
