REFLECTIONS OF A SURVIVOR

Now that Nietzsche has decreed God's death
and God has proclaimed Nietzsche's death

what remains for us
we who are neither gods nor prophets

what remains for us
we who don't announce anybody's death
and go on getting  by

The death of the gods or the death of the prophets
does not bother us

What worries us is the night all around us
