Germany in the nighttime

1961 – the wall has been built

once sixty-one stars glowed over the native land

the East Germany rife with butterflies sparkled in the night

the Western Germany full of west wood garlics glinted in the evening

the fall of the Berlin Wall was an indulgence

then shooting stars fell down

at the moonglow

the night reveals the policies

with the most amazing dreams

the dream about roses

from 1935

was killed forever

by the murkiness of comets

that never could be blazing fiercely

the night crawled

the German Bundestag was light-filled

by all kinds of lights of the new wizardry

thousands of laws are glistering

at the stars-shine

the myth of Germany

is an ancient legend

from the emperor Otto the Great

the history is a night rainbow

awakened in some dreameries

of a dazzling thinker

Hitler wants to be forgotten

forever and for sempiternity

of a night sorcery
