Rilke's Fear of Dogs
had
less to do
with any harm they might inflict than with the sad look in their eyes expressing a need for love he felt he couldn't meet. And so he looked away from them. He was too busy for such obligations, waiting instead for angels to speak, looking up at heaven with an expression they couldn't help responding to, try as they might to avoid his gaze. |
