THE LONELINESS OF THE UNIVERSE IS TOO VAST FOR ME TO COMPREHEND
However vast I feel my own loneliness to be
The loneliness of the universe is too vast for me to comprehend
For am I however great in exaggeration to myself
Still a small interval in all that was and will be-
No the Universe's Loneliness is immensities beyond mine
And its empty distances
And its absences of human voice
And its violent happenings
So beyond all I can sense and feel
That its Loneliness is not perceivable - is somehow truly inconceivable to me.

I would like to translate this poem
Thoughtfully composed with a sober realization that no matter how alone one is it is a meaningless plea to the face of the vast scope of the universe. I am interested in the fallowing lines For am I however great in exaggeration to myself Still a small interval in all that was and will be- I see this as a positive affirmation that no matter how inevitable things are, he fact that what we do still makes a small ripple to everything that flows, or at least that's how I choose to interpret it, Still a great work.
