TO GLORY


Il Testo / Full Text

There burns in my breast
a feverish torment
which consumes me:
To Create.
If a flash of genius
should come to inspire me,
nothing more should I ask of Life
and I should be happy
though the creature of my brain
should then kill me with its splendor
even as a bolt of lightning.
