Sigh

 

Working days, crosses, Fridays,

and where can Sundays be?

Weariness, sadness, mess,

many a step uncertain falls,

to where do the angels flee?

 

Did Cain, even in his mother's womb

bear on his brow the sign,

in his heart the pang of Abel's murderer? Whom

 

will assist Cain and his kind?

 

 


(Bohuslav Reynek)
