A May 28 entry in '1001 POEMS' by the Danish writer Klaus Høeck


        i cannot see the
        main lines any more
they are disappearing like
        the tracks in the field
        that the tractor fol
lowed when the wheat was given
fertilizer they hide them
        and the season - i
        have reached the age when
life has gained in beauty and
        in fullness but has
        lost its direction
