Quatrains

Vierzeiler von Claus Hebell

I looked into the hollow of the deep
Where time is swirling and where mothers weep
I saw my face beyond all recognition
Time had erased all traces of the vision.
Some day we will write pamphlets on the moon
How Mother Earth had treated us so very much unkind
One day regrettably she could not help but swoon
What could we do but aptly leave the useless mess behind?
Okay, the Joker said, give history a break
We’ve known it all the time: it is a kinky fake
The thunder rolls, the herdsmen are in rage
The innocent are lost and lose their hopeful age.
