I step from pile to
pile up to the city wall:
the office massif.
Ik stap van paal op	Ich schreite von Pfahl
paal af op de stadsmuur af:	zu Pfahl auf die Mauer zu:
het kantoormassief.	das Büromassiv.

Amsterdam, 2023-10-19
Breakwater in de East River, at Pier 4 Beach
"The Walled City", Brooklyn (New York), in the past: the warehouses along the waterfront, now: the high office blocks
