* * *

We halt a while to rest a bit,

There’s my rucksack frolicking about

Making my heart skip a beat,

It gambols off far down below

Where holes are turning green to black;

Gurglings and railways, ten thousand sacks

On the moraine, false sacks and true holes,

And big, dirt-encrusted boles;

Finally, here’s my schaos, put your cereal on my back,

Let’s exchange pits of prudence for prunes.

* * *

We’re laughing helplessly at this bad verse,

Snorting into our beards at the worst,

The air is crackling with hail

Our teeth are chattering, our knees fail.

The rock ledge is impregnable,

My memory’s blocked, my stomach’s a knot,

And two fingers are swollen a delicate green.
