down to the heart of a dark cloud
I drank some wine and fell asleep”

“I am afraid of heights
I have fallen from a high place
I am afraid of fire
I have been burned many times
I am afraid of separation
often I have been offended
I am not afraid of death
I have never died before
not even once”
― Abbas Kiarostami, گرگی در کمین
