Daniel Knox, What Have They Done to You Know
“If you’re gonna fool around
Why don’t you keep it out of town
Don’t give me all the details
I don’t wanna know
I don’t wanna know
What have they done to you now?”
Put out my eyes, and I can see you still,
Slam my ears to, and I can hear you yet;
And without any feet can go to you;
And tongueless, I can conjure you at will.
Break off my arms, I shall take hold of you
And grasp you with my heart as with a hand;
Arrest my heart, my brain will beat as true;
And if you set this brain of mine afire,
Then on my blood-stream I yet will carry you.
RILKE
