[New-Poetry] the awful grace of God

[Anny Ballardini]

"Even in our sleep, pain which cannot forget
falls drop by drop upon the heart, 
until, in our own despair,
against our will,
comes wisdom
through the awful grace of God."

 Aeschylus



quoted by Rebecca Drake who quotes it by Robert Kennedy when Martin Luther King was assassinated.
