About the twin
The twin in me.
I inside myself,
Or on the contrary
myself inside my I.
Reality is only i and I.
To kill the twin
Means killing of a man.
To kill in stellar-lantern night
Or in the sunny-cloudy afternoon,
Just face to face or in the back,
There is no difference at all.
It’s meanly to slay the one,
In whom we see ourselves within.
And, having seen, we try to stand aback,
Or to be better,
We try to clean ourselves,
To look more solid,
Than we are.
And sometimes we succeed
It refers to as progress.
Don’t kill the twin in you!
But also do not let him killing you.
Both, in that one and in other cases
You cease to be a person.
