In "Emerging Breath," Christian Lehnert, a master of both strict short forms and larger epic poetry, focuses on shorter, very cohesively structured poems. These poems are filled with images of nature, often reflecting the nearby Brandenburg and Saxony regions, rich in acoustic and visual impressions, yet strangely quiet and mystically open to an experience that goes beyond the naturalistic: it is not static, but also a space for questions, intuitions, and hopes. Thus, from the precise observation, awakens that Pentecostal wind, which has always signified promise and brings with it a new understanding of all things, a 'different state.'.
