A poem from 'Palimpsest' by the Danish writer Klaus Høeck


amen


all those that i have
loved or almost all of them
have disappeared now

through a hole in the
poem gone overnight
in a maelstrom of

words and ashes i
haven’t any idea what’s
become of them but

i believe in the
dead and am therefore what’s known
as insane – amen
