    ok. to that purl i've posted here goes a pityful translation. the poem is from 1918:

    In a excessively clear day,/
    A day that would prompt you to work harder,/
    So that you wouldn't work so much,/
    I saw, like a road between trees,/
    What is probably the Big Secret:/
    The Big Mistery that most fake poets talk about./

    I saw that there was no Nature./
    That Nature doesn't exist.../
    There are Hills, Valleys, Pastures,/
    And Trees, Flowers and Grass,/
    There are Rivers and Stones,/
    But there is not a whole thing to belong to,/
    And that if the whole thing looks real and true/
    That is a disease of our thoughts./

    Nature is parts without whole./
    That is probably the mistery everyone's speaks of./

    It was like this, without thought or being stopped,/
    That I thought of the Truth/
    Which all are striving to find and do not find/
    And that me, only, because i wasn't looking for it, did found./
