Cinquieme

not to be diminished your fifths carry me to a realm of impossibility where one dares to dream far from the root damned to a life of iniquity octaves spun in figure eights your eyes, demure an opal of exchange dying in and out inexperience, enchantment sated, heart fetal by choice fatal by chance fated faith in dire romance black and white black and white tuned, keys just right sung aloud bathed in salts of earthed tones seduced shadows serenade the scene and not seen

It's amazing the strange and elusive creatures a Soul meets in the 5th Dimension. This poet knows - https://www.faena.com/aleph/articles/the-poem-with-which-nabokov-won-over-the-love-of-his-life/

The question is which 1? Surely better if read by you. I discovered these letter readings, simply brilliant. But that one, so beautifully thought through by the author of the letter ... to his second wife. They were both very intriguing and immensely large individual characters.
