Wake!

Photo by Franz Gstattner, Studhofstiege, Vienna, Austria, 2005
Was it snowing then
Was it sunny
Day
Night
What was the sky like
Pink at sunrise
Red at the end of day
Grey, as it is now
I remember her smile
I remember the way she walked
Was I dreaming
Then
Now
Oh, if I am dreaming now
Wake!

  1. Beautiful! Have you read Heimito von Doderer's "Die Strudelhofstiege". I'm sure it has been translated into English.
