Today we must live suspended
In two opposing worlds slipping
Back and forth over the border
Between the dreamy desert and the open sea
Escaping from one and rejected
By the other alone as trees
And yet collected in a dark forest
Forcing one another from our homes
And yet building a hut on the other side
Uncertain in one and insecure in the other
Never freer never more lost
But who could have constructed
A better scheme for courage alone
To save us from ourselves
