Gedig 1 / Poem 1
Staar
‘n wêreld in elke wese
my natuurkind
miskien was ek gebore uit stof na ’n oes
en saam met die son sal ek sak
my koringlandkind.
//
Stare
a world in every being
my child of nature
maybe I was born from dust after a harvest
and with the sun I will set
my wheat field child.

Gedig 2 / Poem 2
Lewe ontwaak as ek skep
tog
leer ek doelloosheid ken
bly om te ontmoet
skep ek met die doel
om te ontbind.
//
Feeling alive as I create
yet
getting to know purposelessness
feeling lucky to have met it
creating with the purpose
to dissolve.
