poem 06.02 2020 (apophatic croissant?)



not
outside
the hair

on
the plate

where
the croissant
was

not
outside
the croissant
that was

or
its
past
or
present

or
the crumbs

left
behind

or

not
not
in
the hair

on
the plate

where
the croissant
was

not
not
in
the croissant
that was

or
its
past
or
present

or
the crumbs

left
behind

                  between the trees
                  around
                  the water
                  pumping
                  house

                 are snowdrops
                 and eranthis
                 unaware
                 of calendar
                 winter

                 and
                 you
                 don’t
                 go
                 anywhere

                 but
                 keep

                 rubbing
                 peppermint
                 oil

                 on
                 your
                 aching
                 neck
                
                 (worn discs)

                 and
                 listen
                 to
                 Bach’s
                 works
                 for
                 flute

not
outside
the hair

on
the plate

where
the croissant
was

not
outside
the croissant
that was

or
the crumbs

left
behind

or

not
not
in

Natsværmerblind / Mothblind


Natsværmerblind

fuglemanden med sit indre af fjer
lister rundt på Abrahamsblomsternes månefangere

den nat vi har skrevet med søm og mælk
venter ikke på os i sin metronomkappe

du er et øjeblik
væk mellem brune tænder
og 80’er techno

jeg er et øjeblik
natsværmerblind og en bølge
af rust i et øje


-

Mothblind

the birdman with his insides of feathers
tip-toes around on the Anrahamflowers’ mooncatchers

the night we have written with nails and milk
won’t wait for us in its metronomecloak

you are a moment
lost between brown teeth
and 80’s techno

I am a moment
mothblind and a wave
of rust in an eye

taken / taget

he was taken from
his mother at a young age
by 25 rebel pelicans
and dumped in the cafeteria

in a faraway shopping centre
where no thinking man
or woman
would dream of being seen

and yet they were there
and continued asking each other
where they were
and how they got there

and why the menu
was one seemingly endless
string of spaghetti
without ketchup

:

han blev taget
fra sin mor i en ung alder
af 25 rebelske pelikaner
og dumpet i et cafeteria

i et shoppingcenter langt borte
hvor ingen tænkende mand
eller kvinde
kunne drømme om at blive set

og dog var de der
og spurgte konstant hinanden
hvor de var og hvordan
de var kommet dertil

og hvorfor menuen bestod
af et tilsyneladende endeløst
stykke spaghetti
uden ketchup

hime / hjam


while we identified trees
from their darkness

that darkness that’s always
cheating the eye

we ended up with the word ”home”
unused

but made up ”hime”
as a cross between

him and home

and looked away







mens vi identificerede træer
ud fra deres mørke

det mørke der altid
snyder øjet

endte vi op med ordet ”hjem”
i overskud

men opfandt ”hjam”
som en krydsning mellem

ham og hjem

og kiggede væk
