Sonja Prins: Geen stem

Sonja Prins

(1912-2009)

 

Geen stem

geen stem in de wolkbreuk de plotselinge waterval

van de daken glijdend

druipende steen met hun zoute tongen

verwoest o geen stem

 

onder het afdak

geen oog en geen beeld en geen godheid

buiten het raam

wuivende takken en de echo van een licht

over de grond kruipend

 

nee een stroom wild

rode robijn

een wilde stroom

en het daglicht dat opstijgt

 

in de kuil van de zee

die het land omvademt

geen stem maar hij komt

hij komt kruipend

 

(uit ‘Nieuwe proeve in strategie’ van Sonja Prins, 1912)
