soos naels

die poësie groei stadig en geduldig
soos naels

en soos naels is poësie daar
om die jeuk te krap

en al gaan die lyf dood
die naels bly groei

like nails

poetry grows slow and patiently
like nails

and like nails poetry is there
to scratch the itch

and even when the body dies
the nails keep on growing
