1. Postkarte I

Herr Ölze, jene Stunde wird keine Schrecken haben, seien Sie beruhigt,

2. Gottfried Benn an Ilse
 (Sung text)

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Liebste, gestern Mittag bei mir sahst Du wunderschön aus: glatt, sanft,
ruhig - bleibe immer so - unter meinen Küssen! Liebe ist: Gutes und 
Böses, Leichtes und Schweres, Leichtes und Schweres: alles, Spiel und 
Trauer!
        Dein G.

3. An Gertrud Zenzes
 (Sung text)

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Lieber Mungo, Du hast recht: Ich soll Dich nicht so lange ohne Liebe u. 
Freundschaft lassen, Du bist zu zart u. weich dazu. Aber was soll ich tun? 
Zur Zeit u. wie mir scheint, für eine lange Zeit muß ich allein 
leben u. werde Dich nicht sehn. Gehn wir also auseinander mit dem 
Bewußtsein, daß wir uns wieder treffen werden, daß 
zwischen uns nicht war u. sein wird als große Freundschaft, 
Glück u. Zärtlichkeit, so oft die Stunde schlug u. wenn sie 
wieder schlagen wird. Wann? Vielleicht bald.
                Dich küßt sehr zärtlich,
                                        G.
