Joan Maragall: The blinded cow

As so often happens,
I spontaneously opened this new book
to 'a random' page and... read this poem several times.
Pages 36/37: La vaca sega / Die erblindete Kuh.

Sometimes I regret

Sometimes I regret 
having wasted so much time thinking, 
re-thinking again and again and pondering 
instead of ... writing.

"If it is art it is not for all
and if it is for all it is not art."

Wherever I look:
It's autumn.

Just no books!

* [For first time visitors]: 
Typo in the title? Nah. It's just that 
I would not let a tiny T spoil an avantgardistic alliteration.
 

** I know a little boy who after all has started to love reading! ;-)
