your first word of all was light.
then time began. then for long you were silent.

your second word was `order`. and fear began
which grips us still.

are you about to speak again +?
i do not wish your third word.




nn = ost.europa dancing on your ekonomie. whispering.


have you never yearned for the enemy.
that it might besiege you 
for long irresolute years until

in hopelessness and hunger you receive it +?
it extends like the land beyond your walls
and it knows it can hold out longer.

look from your balconies:
there it camps. it does not tire
nor diminish in size or strength.
it sends no messengers to threaten
nor to promise or persuade.

it who shall overcome you
is working in silence.
