To charms doubtful and not mine -
If you but knew how much fire,
How much life is wasted in vain,
On the rustling, occasional shade
What a heroic flame -
And how enflamed my heart
This gunpowder wasted in vain!
O the trains flying into the night,
Carrying sleep on the station away..
If you recognized - if you but knew -
Then and there, I know, anyway.
Why are my words so sharp
In the smoke of my cigarette -
How much dark and menacing angst
Is there in my light-haired head.
