ON MARRIAGE...


"And how about marriage?" asked me a girl from a cheese-store one day.
Indeed, how about it, I also wonder sometimes.

Once I found someone noble and beautiful who could have perhaps fit the part. We were drinking tea one night when I asked how many children he wanted.

"Three," he answered.
"Fine," I agreed.
"Come with me," I invited him, "I will show you autumn."
"I would like to, but I can´t", was his polite reply.

So I went alone, because I belong to the road,
and he stayed behind in the land of eternal summer.

Nothing happened. He was not my man.
If he had been, I would have stayed.

One other time in one other country there was one other man.
He was just the opposite of the first, yet I loved him.
Still I did not stay, although he bid me to.
My road I loved more.

Perhaps I am already married...
