A lot of German poetry does seem to me to be ... melancholy, I suppose. Not exactly sad, but somewhere around there. And complicated - although that probably goes for most poetry, regardless of language. I think I need re-read and spend longer over it. My German's even rustier than my French. It was my best subject at school but I had to give it up because it wouldn't fit in with the ones I had to take.
If you have a German filter, I'd like to be added, just for the practice. Apart from listening to Lieder, I don't seem to be exposed to much German these days.
