• We are the mirror, as well as the face in it.
  We are tasting the taste of eternity this minute.
  We are pain and what cures pain.

  no beautiful women and men longing.
  Only this ancient love circling the holy black stone of nothing.
  Where the lover is the loved, the horizon and everything within it.
