from In Time's Rift

This was read:
"Infinity, come in!"

How would it be possible,
since the finite piles up?

I look at a window,
square of sky.

You, dear, are still
my dwelling.


Ernst Meister, In Time's Rift, pg. 71,
tr. Graham Foust & Samuel Frederick



Gelesen dies:
“Unendlichkeit, tritt ein!”

Wie wär es möglich,
da sich das Endliche türmt?

Ich schau auf ein Fenster,
Himmelsviereck.

Noch bist du, Liebes,
meine Wohnung.
