Literature Text

It clings to my hands
         like glue to a stick.
It trembles on my lips
         like blood on a blade.
It covers my soul like a shadow that raises over a landscape
  transforming every green into grey and pale.

My thoughts mutate into flashes of light, beams and rays.
      They seem to be streaks of rain.
Every end has a beginning, though this one's false.
I can't swallow it whole.
I can't spit it out.

And me
  standing there amidst the ruins
while my inner world won't stop spinning
    while reflecting
as Inanimate Existence.
Again one pulled out of the old dusty books that color my shelves. I think I was 18 at the time.
Originally written in dutch. To be found in my gallery, folder Dutch/Nederlandstalig, of course!

Well you did very well if you did that at 18! I like the concepts you used and how you kept the reader wanting to read to find the answer. Nicely done
