a voice in the wind

"I am learning to see. I don't know why it is, but everything penetrates more deeply into me and does not stop at the place where until now it always used to finish. I have an inner self of which I was ignorant. Everything goes thither now, what happens there I do not know." - Rainer Maria Rilke

"Turning and turning in the widening gyre, the falcon cannot hear the falconer
Things fall apart, the centre cannot hold, mere anarchy is loosed upon the world. The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere the ceremony of innocence is drowned
The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity
Surely some revelation is at hand; surely the Second Coming is at hand”

- WB Yeats (The Second Coming)

Lovely defintion of the current turmoils in the world...
