The fire's glow is out. There is nothing left to burn. No sky of smoke or rain. There is nothing left to learn. I count fingers and toes. I count my teeth twice more. I count the panes in the window. I count the prints on the door. There is nothing left to say. There is nothing left to stage. There is no light nor darkness here. There is nothing worth a nothing rage. She wraps herself in fur to keep out summer's cold. "I've waited my whole life for you, and now I feel so old." She wraps herself in me, in winter's treeline verse. "I used to think love was a gift, but loneliness is no curse." No sand, cement to build. No river's head to drink. No storms of snow or ash around. There are no more thoughts to think. |

I'm glad you all enjoyed this. And not to worry -- if some of you think *your* German is limited .... mine's pretty much non-existent. Mike |
