Weggebeizt vom Strahlenwind deiner Sprache das bunte Gerede des An- erlebten – das hundert- züngige Mein- gedicht, das Genicht. Aus- gewirbelt, frei der Weg durch den menschen- gestaltigen Schnee, den Büßerschnee, zu den gastlichen Gletscherstuben und -tischen. Tief in der Zeitenschrunde, beim Wabeneis wartet, ein Atemkristall, dein unumstößliches Zeugnis.

Ins Hirn gehaun - halb? zu drei Vierteln? -, gibst du, genächtet, die Parolen - diese : "Tatarenpfeile". "Kunstbrei". "Atem". Es kommen alle, keiner fehlt und keine. (Sipheten und Probyllen sind dabei.) Es kommt ein mensch. Weltapfelgross die Träne neben dir, durchbrauscht, durchfahren von Antwort, Antwort, Antwort. Durchseist - von wem? "Passiert", sagst du, "passiert", "passiert". Der stille Aussatz löst sich dir vom Gaumen und fächelt deiner Zunge Licht zu, Licht.

Ich kann Dich noch sehn: ein Echo. ertastbar mit Fühl- wörtern, am Abschieds- grat. Dein Gesicht scheut leise, wenn es auf einmal lampenhaft hell wird in mir, an der Stelle, wo man am schmerzlichsten Nie sagt.
