Bert Bevers: Koorts

Koorts

 

Van schegbeeld en ontscheping droomt hij,

van vasteland waar onder plavuizen verleden

 

gromt. Kinderdeuntjes deinen er op de wal,

zingen zon en zee en moord en doodslag na.

 

Kaapstanders tollen rondom. Aarzelende druppels

dreigen maar eenzaamheid torst de zeeman nors.

 

Ritseling en nachtwind. Krulletjes slaap slechts,

vluchtig als de korte koelte die je ’s zomers voelt

 

wanneer je bladert door een boek. Van

de loefbras glijden ottergladde schietgebeden.
