“Parting†Rainer Maria Rilke, trans. By CohnHow long I’ve known what parting means, how well I know it still, invincible and cruel. A dreadful thing, a thing which once more shows what we hold dear, which it at once destroys.How vulnerable I was, but then I learned that those who cried to me yet let me go would leave me all alone while they remained: like shapes of women pale and far awaywaving good-byes no longer meant for me, their gestures faint, no longer signifying, mere objects in the distance, fluttering- a cuckoo flying from a damson-tree.
