Quotes
Den Ich-zerfall, den süßen, tiefersehnten,Den gibst Du mir: schon ist die Kehle rauh,Schon ist der fremde Klang an unerwähntenGebilden meines Ichs am Unterbau.
The I-breakdown, sweet, deep cravedYou give it to me: already my throat is raw,Already I hear the alien sound Rebuilding unspoken images of my I.
"Cocaine" (1917)
