(for Annelize, in answer to Lina Spies)
Outside lightning-bolts flash down blue-white,
and in the bright sunlight the rain pours down
while jackal is marrying wolf's wife,
where constantly I do love you more
but there is no baboon that puts down a pig-leaf
as a invitation the weddings of the apes,
while drops fall silver on the tar and dust.
I wish I could move my whole life to you;
and in the bright sunlight the rain pours down.
