Crux Petri (Men’s Jersey Tee)

« Nah ist. Und schwer zu fassen der Gott. »

An inverted cross. Roses wound around it, bleeding downward. Peter asked to be crucified upside down. He didn't consider himself worthy to die the same way. This is the reading most people carry.

The German on the back is Hölderlin. Written around 1800, by a man who spent the last thirty-six years of his life in a tower, diagnosed insane. It asks why there are poets in a time of destitution. It says the gods are living, but up above our heads, in another world. It ends with two words: Donnernd kommen sie drauf. Thundering, then they come.
