The lost steps

Dedicated to Judith and András.

A quick look over my right shoulder.

It's there.

No_

it's not _

it is.

Must be but

I can't see

that step

I made I'm sure.

Let me look for the other one.

A quick look over my left shoulder.

It's not there.

Yes_

it is.

Are you sure?

Yes I am!

Can you see it?

No, I can't.

But

I feel I

made it.

I made it_

otherwise, I could not have been here already.

Where are they?

What?

Those steps!

Which ones?

Those that I made!

Do not look for them

behind you.

Where shall I look then?

Look where you stand!

­I'-m _ look -ing_

Are you at the same place?

then before you made them?

No, I am further

So?!

I made them.

Yes you did.

Now look forward

to the steps you will make.

Do not look over your shoulders.
