For the fall to the eternal bottom cannot but always already be the bottom

As we fall and everything is fall and everyone falls

All that which we do is up to us

We have to make it up as we go along

As we fall all along

And everything which does not look like this fall is up

All the things which do not look like they are falling are up

They are held up in that one way distance

Until they fall, too

But before they fall

They show up

Just as there are people that show up

As we will also show up

To make it up to them –

Those things and those people –

Would be an apology for the way we go

But certainly so that we may see ourselves sometimes

Not just empty to a falling

But in that forgiveness of all things already.
