July 11 Nikos Kazantzakis kretian
....stones, water, fire and earth shall be transformed to spirit,
and the mud-winged and heavy soul, freed of its flesh, shall
like a flame serene ascend and fade in sun...
July 25 Yevgeny Yevtushenko russian
Give me, Pushkin, your harmony, your speech, free and unchained,
your captivating fate, as in jest, to call down fire with words
Aug 8 Cesar Vallejo peruvian
Were the evil one to come, shouldering a throne, were snow to be in
excess in the notion of fire, were the corpse to lie down to watch us, the
flash to be corpulent thunder...
Aug 26 Paul Celan romanian
With the voice of the fieldmouse you squeak up to me, a sharp clip, you
bite your way way through my shirt to the skin...
Sept 19 Friedrich Nietzsche german
Yes I know my own beginning. Unrequited like all flaming, glowing,
I transcend myself. All I touch turns into light, fertile ash I leave
behind...

Still the same kindness of God flows from the unequivocal skies...
