since the Ukraine war

Markus Kiener 1960 (Regensdorf)



I think of two sunrises – two sunrises
when I wake up in the morning
one sunrise coming naturally
one sunrise coming accidentally
since the Ukraine war

I think of one sunset and of one sunrise
when I go to bed in the evening
one sunset coming naturally
one sunset coming accidentally
since the Ukraine war

I think of two sunsets – two sunsets
before my tired eyes fall asleep
one sunset coming naturally
one sunset coming accidentally
since the Ukraine war
