At the coming of Spring

At this time I am sensitive to creaking
sudden falling limbs and the breaking up of rivers.

I go into the streets wearing a false beard
and dressed in the style of an orthodox Jew
leave bread at roadsides.

Ah ha! You say, slapping your forehead theatrically
that is why hopeful birds follow you
and mice take your steps as their trail.

That is not the reason, but it will do for the likes of you.

Wenn es Frühling wird

In dieser Jahreszeit reagiere ich gereizt auf Knarzen,
jäh herabstürzende Äste und Eisbruch von Flüssen.

Wenn ich auf die Straße gehe, trage ich einen falschen Bart,
gekleidet wie orthodoxe Juden
deponiere ich an Wegesrändern Brot.

Aha, sagst du, und schlägst dir dramatisch an die Stirn,
darum also folgen hoffnungsvolle Vögel
und Mäuse deiner Spur.

Das ist kein Grund, aber für Leute wie dich muss es reichen.
