Yehuda Amichai - The Diameter Of The Bomb

Yehuda Amichai - The Diameter Of The Bomb

The diameter of the bomb was thirty centimeters br and the diameter of its effective range about seven meters, br with four dead and eleven wounded. br And around these, in a larger circle br of pain and time, two hospitals are scattered br and one graveyard. But the young woman br who was buried in the city she came from, br at a distance of more than a hundred kilometers, br enlarges the circle considerably, br and the solitary man mourning her death br at the distant shores of a country far across the sea br includes the entire world in the circle. br And I won’t even mention the crying of orphans br that reaches up to the throne of God and br beyond, making a circle with no end and no God.
