love in august

19 5 8
                                    

a sudden wind came to warm itslef  

to the high embers od late August.

cracks in the ground, dry mouths, 

cursing the world.                       

whoever may still live, lives,

because it only uses itself now.

we copy, we also live from ourselves now,

but the fire in us only stimulates our blood.

we give to eachother, fueled by love,

hot as this August, more and more alive:

two unreal beings outside of time,

yet the only defiant, green oasis   

in the desert.
