Belgenmonument
buildings ruined, forgotten
sunken into the depths of memory
but again revealed
is it half sunken into the ground
or half emerged from the earth
ruined and in parts yet
each of them standing in solitude
expressing their own story, their time, their destruction
together they represent something distance and yet strangely familiar
it was part of a city
and it could well be the future
they are at once reminding and precautionary
monuments .
