It’s nice to be fluent
In more than one tongue,
So you can converse
When you are among

People from places
You’d like to go
And ask them whatever
You need to know.

But what I’d prefer
(This might make you laugh)
Is the version of fluent
That starts with af-....

Spectrum of colors arise with great force
Exploding in prism gleams that resurface

Symbol of hope after the storm passes
Captivate your eyes with its mysteries

we drove late afternoon
              over the dark Rhein,
              the sky fake with orange,

to Bonn : to a house with cool, emplty rooms,
              white with words, dark with chords,
              to an elegant Hammerflügel ;

for my father the end of a journey,
              but the start of the sublime

( for A.F. Philibert)...

Don’t hang your halo here
It isn’t safe
It will go dark
It won’t glow anymore
It won’t survive
I have become
The hungry destroyer
Af the light
So that we can all gallop
Into dreams
On Trojan horses
Through an illuminated path
Made by the large and ghastly
Demon-like moon
That so grudgingly
Assists us silently
Through the night 
The the other side of morning...

as always,the cycle af night and day 
produces weeks,month and seasons
the old year races fast
into the belly of a welcoming past
and a new one is speedily  emerging
from the pregnant womb of the morning

as the seasonal cycle procedes
every sunrise brings a day anew
and its dawn signalled another day to renew
may each cycle of days bring you
joy,happiness and strenght to see you through...

My heart starts pounding and my knees go weak
I can feel the blood running up to my head 
My adrenalin is pumping, my blood vessels retract

I know what this is all about
My fear is but just a fall away
If I falter, I fall, without a doubt!

Sweet sounds flood my saturated mind
Sounds of laughter, sounds of joy

Yet I know I cannot tell, although through this fog I must win
Cheering and smiling, all look up at me

I begin my story, 300 feet af bungee...

Ons is beskaaf, want ons kan bome af kap
en stukkies hout aanmekaar lym.
Ons is nie diere nie;
want ons kan mooi woorde laat rym.
Ons is die dominante spesie
want ons kan Everest versit.
Ons het krone en gewere en landsvlae
daarom kan ons die Aarde se grond besit.
...grond wat ons later gaan word
en ons gaan omgee wanneer ons doen.
Maar die bome gaan nie omgee nie
die diere gaan nie omgee nie
die berge gaan nie omgee nie
en die grond gaan nie omgee nie......
