Patience (After Sebald)

Everything is on the point of decline

As if one were sinking into sand

Approaching the outer limits of our solar system

When the dog days were drawing to an end

A last glimpse of the land being lost forever

The homesickness that was corroding her soul

I have become almost invisible, to some extent like a dead man

In the deep and dark hours of the night

No one knows what shadowy memories haunt them to this day

Increasingly absorbed in his own World

Isolated lights on the abyss of ignorance

Now the night is over and the dawn is about to break
