the god stopped her and with anguish in his cry
uttered the words He has turned round
she comprehended nothing and said softly Who

Look the trees exist the houses
we dwell in stand there stalwartly.
Only we
pass by it all like a rush of air.
And everything conspires to keep quiet
about us
half out of shame perhaps half out of
some secret hope.
