    Makes me feel like a Poem by Hans Magnus Enzensberger:

    historical progress

    the bay is frozen up.
    the trawlers ice-bound.
    so what.
    you are free.
    you can lie down.
    you can get up again.
    it doesn’t matter about your name.

    you can disappear.
    and return.
    that’s possible.
    a fighter howls across the island.
    even when a man dies
    letters still come for him.
    there isn’t much to be lost or thwarted,
    you can sleep
    that’s possible.

    the ice-breaker will be here in the morning.
    then the trawlers will leave.
    the channel they follow is narrow.
    it freezes up again by morning.
    so what,
    it doesn’t matter about your name.
