The Milky Way spreads silver through the night.
I'm in no hurry. I have no cause
to stir or startle you with lightning telegrams.
As they say, the incident is over.
Love's boat has smashed against our daily lives.
You and I are through. Why balance out
the mutual waste and pain, the old affronts?
Look, what peace descends upon the world!
Night has filled the sky with a praise of stars.
At such a time one rises to converse
with centuries, history, and all creation.
(Vladimir Mayakovsky)
