Arunachala Terminal

 

By J.de Reede

 

Looking out of a train window,

Standing still at some nameless station,

Another stray train, moving,

Awakens the false but vivid illusion:

We move.

 

Remembering the only remedy:

Look in the opposite direction!

I check, and trough that other

Window see Arunachala,

Standing still.

 

The illusion is destroyed!

Beholding Arunachala, I-I is known

As Standing Still.

 

(in: The Mountain Path, Oct. 1973, p. 210)
