AND MAYBE ALL WAS WRITTEN Poem by Claude Esteban

AND MAYBE ALL WAS WRITTEN



And maybe all was written in the book
but the book got lost

or someone threw it in the brambles
without reading it

no matter, that which was written
abides, even

hidden, another who has not lived
through all that

and without knowing the book's language, will understand
each word

and when he has read it, something
of ours will yield

a breath, a kind of smile between the stones.
