Quote by Hart Crane

“O Thou steeled Cognizance whose leap commits The agile precincts of the lark’s return; Within whose lariat sweep encinctured sing In single chrysalis the many twain — Of stars Thou art the stitch and stallion glow And like an organ, Thou, with sound of doom — Sight, sound and flesh Thou leadest from time’s realm As love strikes clear direction for the helm”

Yalnızca burada değil, yeryüzünün her köşesinde tükettin çünkü hayatı.”
