Invest.


Forget, forget, and let us live now 
only this, how the stars pierce through 
cleared nocturnal sky; how the moon’s whole disk 
surmounts the gardens. We’ve sensed so long already 
how the darkness breeds many mirrors: how a gleam 
takes shape, a white shadow in the radiance 
of night. But now let us cross over 
and invest this world where 
everything is lunar --

Rainer Maria Rilke
