origins of again!again! (faux intellectual category)

from my friend Stephanie from NYC:

love the way Rilke writes...so let me send you the one I thought was the blog inspiration..cause it would have been a good one..but I have to admit I love the real origins too..cause I still say it sometimes when I go on a tilt a whirl

Again, Again!

Again, again, even if we know the countryside of love,
and the tiny churchyard with its names mourning,
and the chasm, more and more silent, terrifying, into which the others
dropped: we walk out together anyway
beneath the ancient trees, we lie down again,
again, among the flowers, and face the sky.
