From Prose To Verse ... Forty Five Words From Grandmaster K

________________________________________________________________________________________________

For we are like tree trunks in the snow.

In appearance they lie sleekly

and a little push should be enough

to set them rolling.

No, it can't be done,

for they are firmly wedded

to the ground.

But see:

even that 

is only appearance.

Franz Kafka
