Tag: Germany

He would be all right
Her face, she thought, was too small, her chin too narrow
These were serious hiking trails, for serious hikers
She dressed stylishly
The hike had been the man’s suggestion
The mistake would be his, always his
Who was she? Who was that woman?
A sort of adventure, maybe
I’m just on my way somewhere
It’s all a misunderstanding
You’re not safe here
No one said anything
You’ll come back to an altered country
Our generation is the vanguard
I’ll tell you about it sometime
Why don’t you come with me?
He knew he had to be careful
The paint was no longer fresh
There seemed to be nowhere for the old to reside
This isn’t a game you’re playing
If you go, you won’t come back
But will it make a difference?
Do you think it was worth it?
Forcibly occupying land
No one came to chase them away
A turn leads to a quiet enclave
I imagine it was mostly an accident
Then everybody went away
The biggest trees stood lightly scorched but unharmed
They are damned strange cruel men
But dealing with them is always a struggle
There was not a breath of wind
‘Listen’, he said quietly
Finish with thinking and act
It’s an opportunity that cannot be neglected
You’re a lunatic!
He stared at the paper with curious intentness
Hey! Come out o’ there, you!
Sometimes he would go down to the waterfront
It was a transient annoyance
Ain’t much use of us trying to do anything
Most likely he don’t even know what’s going on
The face held puzzlement without fear
You ruined my experiment
I don’t know … he simply wandered in here!
I had a lot of fun
You all are crazy, you know
And it can go backwards in time
And that’s the entire theory of light!
You don’t like it? Go find another universe!
