Niels Landstra gedicht: Hartenklop

 

Hartenklop

Naar elkaar bogen de lichamen zich

in de enigheid van de aanbidders

die ze waren, er was haar vrijmoedig-

heid en zijn weifelend verzet; ieder

 

moment met haar was een Hof van Eden

zilverspattend van een broosglanzend

licht, zij stichtte wanhoop in zijn geest, rede-

loos beliep hij zijn puinhopen, angsten

 

bestreed hij vergeefs, zo geschiedde dat

de kracht hem ontvlood haar te kozen, en

schonk een ander zijn apotheose, toch,

 

als hij haar ‘s nachts buiten bespiedt; mat

is zijn blik, te laat bevrijd vanbinnen

beslaat haar raam haar hartenklop.
