Could I sit in that chair?


“Oh Reh: welch Schönheit aus dem Innersten
uralter Wälder in deinen Augen leuchtet,
wieviel an fester Zuversicht
gepaart mit wieviel Furcht.
All dieses ist in der behenden
Anmut deiner Sprünge.
Doch nichts erreicht jemals
das scheu Naive deiner Stirn.”

(R.M. Rilke in La Biche)

The Spider as an Artist


“The Spider as an Artist
Has never been employed –
Though his surpassing Merit
Is freely certified

By every Broom and Bridget
Throughout a Christian Land –
Neglected Son of Genius,
I take thee by the Hand.”

(E. Dickinson, no title)
