fleursdumal 500

Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven
(1874 – 1927)

 

ONLY ADVENTUROUS ARE RICH

 

ONLY ADVENTUROUS ARE RICH –

RICH ARE ADVENTUROUS.

SOON AS IN STABLE

CULTURES’ TRADITIONS’ SECURITY

THEY

CEASE SO TO BE –

STAGNATIONGERM WORMS

UNDERGROUND PASSAGE

TO OBLIVION.
 

FLUX
 

LINDBERGH ONLY COULD SPRING

FROM OBSCURE VASTNESS’ REJUVENATED

VIRGIN SOILS’ FERTILE MIXTURE –

VITALY FOCED

TO EXPLORE ITSELF.
