    Thunderstorm
    hangs in the air,
    like wet laundry.

    questions
    are like
    pathways
    leading
    into endless
    caverns

    of a northern lake
    taunts, persistent.

    Making decisions
    is like squeezing
    through a keyhole

    Jump? How, when I'm
    already on solid ground?

    Hic Rhodos, hic salta.
    Then back on solid ground.
    O schaurig ists übers Moor zu gehn,
    wenn es wimmelt vom Heiderauche,
    sich wie Phantome die Dünste drehn
    und die Ranke häkelt am Strauche.


    Annette von Droste-Hülshoff (1797 - 1843) (see avatar) Der Knabe im Moor/The Lad in the Moor

    To jump
    is to believe
    in three dimensions
