Sound by translucency

David van Horen


First, there was a new sound,

and after that,

another drop of water.


I knew then,

all of my life,

I was in the need

of a translucent clock.


In the silence,

across nature given

by old memories,

in hands was given,

a book of seconds.


She, asked herself

in the morning, what daylight

meant in her heart, but I know,

the soul was silently lost, in Time.

Thea Beckman – Hasse Simonsdochter, pagina 322 – 323

“Ze is het liefste, pittigste vrouwtje dat ik ooit heb ontmoet.

Niet half zo slecht als sommige mensen denken.

Hij moet weg, dacht Hasse zenuwachtig.

Jawel, zei ze koud. Deze Hasse maakte haar man wijs dat hij kon

vliegen en toen viel hij dood.

Dreunend sloeg Gerrit op tafel.”


“Ze was niet veel veranderd. Ouder geworden, ernstiger,

een trek van berustend verdriet om de mond. Maar de ogen

waren nog even groot, diep en zwart, en fonkelden nog even trots.”

The Religion of The Blue Circle

Petra Hermans
Let's talk about life.
Let's talk about love.
Let's write about religion.
And keep quiet in silent silence.
