Well I deserve nothing more than I get
’cause nothing I have is truly mine”

“I sing the Body electric;
The armies of those I love engirth me, and I engirth them;
They will not let me off till I go with them, respond to them,
And discorrupt them, and charge them full with the charge of the Soul.”

(W. Whitman from I sing the body electric)

Was hier wir sind, kann dort ein Gott ergänzen
Mit Harmonien und ewigen Lohn und Frieden.”
