TO MOTHER AND TO FATHER

mother; father;
 it is you that have caused my misfortune
 and by doing so, you have dragged upon yourself
 this misfortune a hundredfold:
 what parent can possibly compass life
 with ardency; exuberance; vitality;
  with the knowledge
  that their child
  is warding off the despair-demons...
  ...and losing at it?
atrocious slave of birth am i;
every moon is ugly
  and the sun is only there
  when i have too much clothes on.
