mlrI think I'm going to pass on this day. I'm not sure, but at this point I think I will let those that survive me remember me in the way they see best. But I hope they would perform some composition of mine. And I hope they would read a poem or two that meant something to me in life.
I found this guy on YouTube reading a translation of the first Duino Elegy. I think that would do nicely. I discovered Rilke and his elegies when I was 18. They worked their solemn power on me as they have done to countless other readers. The subject of the first poem is about leaving life behind - so yes, I think it would work.
