Klaus Høeck: 'Palimpsest': 'Sphere on a Cylinder'



sphere on a cylinder
(1969)

if this poem was
a sphere of brass coated with
chrome and positioned

on a cylinder
of steel you would be able
to mirror yourself

in it you would be
able to see that you are
only a quite or

dinary person
that you will die one day like
everybody else
