the wall

I feel it
immediately
crying,  pulling
and not simply the stones
but rather it’s life
signed
by each element

there it is
still standing throughout ages
as if it acknowledges:
this is the right place

I tear it down
brick by brick
but let
life
and as it seems to be

that part, weathered
deep inside
is digested
very slowly

the sun
a radiance
al-light
will explain the dark

and I?

I’m  listening
hearing
what is said
searching
and
the impression so strong
is translated in color,
and arises as this painting

again
I build the wall
brick by brick
and even deeper lived through
I feel it over and over again
close
around me
