Tererem — Pererem

Two men at a small table in a dusk courtyard, a spiral of question marks rising between them

A questioner and an answerer trade riddles across a courtyard table — silence and gold, knowing and not-knowing, God, death, and a woman named Geni who is his Eden. A dialogue-poem from 1983.
