Das Ende des Jahre 2004

Happy new year!!
We finish yet we begin!

Recently I watched the movie Solaris during one of my fab bus runs, grasping through my drowsiness but only islands of the whole phylosophic & conceptual architecture... My curiosity stirred... Here is the poem by Dylan Thomas:

And Death Shall have No Dominion

And death shall have no dominion.
Dead men naked they shall be one
With the man in the wind and the west moon;
When their bones are picked clean and the clean bones gone,
They shall have stars at elbow and foot;
Though they go mad they shall be sane,
Though they sink through the sea they shall rise again;
though lovers be lost love shall not;
And death shall have no dominion.

And death shall have no dominion.
Under the windings of the sea
They lying long shall not die windily;
Twisting on racks when sinews give way,
Strapped to a wheel, yet they shall not break;
Faith in their hands shall snap in two,
And the unicorn evils run them through;
Split all ends up they shan't crack;
And death shall have no dominion.

And death shall have no dominion.
No more gulls cry at their ears
Or waves break loud on seashores;
Where blew a flower may a flower no more
Lift its head to the blows of the rain;
Though they be mad and dead as nails,
Heads of the characters hammer through daises,
Break in the sun till the sun breaks down.
And death shall have no dominion.

--- Dylan Thomas
