Hall, how you are full of ceiling! It goes where the flooring is Land prepares for giant flooding and drinks the palms of oases Hold the things before they will fly Today's swirl isn't mute Get tied down with endlessly high torment to your inside root To your cisterns of claims that die being pecked through liver's shell by fierce eagle which would **** dry the water, drinks, pail as well.

"The Storm" by J. Orten (1919-1941)
By faced tenderness so had the brooks let you ride between the shores that you did miss to landscapes of night by faced tenderness Still wandering and unseen you had been caught by the lands sunk near the hidden scene in flooding of dark, in the flood without ends still wandering and unseen A lover is left at the railing we don't know there no tender face for she broke tenderness once by stealing the poor mortal ladies' waves of their grace But I had heard someone said you spread out your legs and made them sold to the water sprites who felt too cold A small pittance of love not so bad was helping you until your death.

"Drowned" by J. Orten (1919-1941)
Hey, lament, if I may call you so would you come here to bring your sorrow? Fragrance, do you have things to tell? I would breathe in your poisoned smell. How many curtains! But none that hangs. I feel my head, lungs and heart have pangs. That's for the drinks I had to take. Maybe for all that I can take. For fasting there is a believer. I stubbornly think of a dinner. I'm hungry! Who cares if I ate the tears and the fear and the hate. I'm also thirsty. I'll drink my pail of blizzard, rainstorm and the hail and after getting tired from it I fall asleep on this couplet. But lament, why am I saying so would you come here to bring your sorrow?

"The Hangover" by J. Orten (1919-1941)
Look over there, The moon has fled well she is not kind — she is bad just hidden from us in a clouds' cache and nudging them and it starts to splash with acrid rain on the darkness of the roofs with breath of softness tinging a house where the sleep could stay sleep, wherever you have slipped away all those dreams, they have become wet the rock is sighing it has let the ravine to take one stone falling and meantime here I, I am singing. Never mind that I am in a jail because I know the morning won't fail to help me when it grows to inflame out of the ripe night which keeps the same also for the next tomorrow. Indeed they seem to overflow these mornings, still in a drowsy vein as raising the head from breast of rain which fell in love with them and shines and to honour both with my lines while for me a note of wind is blown tell me, why I shouldn't sing on my own.

"The Dawn" by J. Orten (1919-1941)
Things would become full of life again and all the songs, time's arias would follow as before to sustain things hidden within us If someone just shed that heaviness which has imprinted our touch and finishes sewing the coat's stitches knowing now it doesn't hurt much Just not to pull it on the body as you are used to in the frost wearing long sleeves when February has brought love that tends to exhaust Feel a touch where the cloth has left it where there is the bare skin lying where there is no place for a jacket (it is too large for the living)
