Re: What are you listening to?
Einstürzende Neubauten... Beauty</p>
You see half the moon, its crescent, and one of the planets, maybe Saturn, </p>
maybe Jupiter, in the early night sky over Berlin, through the windows of a taxicab, </p>
near Potsdamer Platz.
You think: Beauty.
No, this is not beauty, maybe not, maybe, this is the rest of it, maybe not, maybe, </p>
the rest of beauty, </p>
maybe not, maybe, what remains of beauty, maybe not, maybe, what is visible, certainly, </p>
uncertain.
</p>
Your arms would not be able to stretch as far as necessary to form an adequate gesture </p>
for beauty (You know that, don't you?).
</p>
So, beauty remains in the impossibilities of the body.
