Good old-fashioned idealism

gabrielsmy interviews 5 Jun 201523 Jul 2020

It was winter,
and I went outside.

I said, ‘World,
I’m immortal.
I’ll always exist.
But you only exist because I see you.

If you don’t give me anything,
I won’t give you anything.’

(Friedrich Liechtenstein in Once an Ornamental Hermit, Now a German Media Darling. Submitted by Daniel Galef)
