Bert Bevers: Tussen de bomen

Tussen de bomen

Vroeger, toen het bos nog jong was en
vinders van zwaarden er zwegen alsof
ze op een schande waren gestoten, was
het lover al goudkeverkleurig. Stel je voor

hoe hier de rituelen van de stam werden
overgeleverd door de hoofdzanger, in milde
doorschouwing naar klaarheid zwenkend.
Waarheid laat zich maar moeilijk vatten.

Bert Bevers
Tussen de bomen
verschenen in de catalogus Enghuizer Dialogen, Hummelo, 2016

Bert Bevers is dichter en schrijver
Hij woont en werkt in Antwerpen (Be)
