FOR A PERFORMANCE OF
DANISH DANCE THEATRE COPENHAGEN
There is a solitude of my mind
a solitude of space.
Thoughts beating like drums at the sides of my skull,
my own beautiful prisoners roaming through a wildernis of imagination
and its echo rests intimately in the corners of my soul
trying to escape through the young flesh of my body
a constant filter of my frail mind
seeks to travel beyond
wants to empty itself and spit out colours
for everyone to see. Do you see it?
Do you recieve the true sight of my body?
Or is my body just a vessel
where lights shining through
and my skin is breaking the light
and the reflection of yourself
makes the content invisible
and by what you see you can only guess
your perception is a lie
can you accept that whatever I attempt to express will never be the truth of my infinite mind?
CAFÉ
A café on a small empty side street
plates and ceramic cups, peoples patterns ,
the smell of wooden coffee, butter and holy bread
made of mans hand
daylight mingles with the candles flames and peoples
voices tickle my fingertips
A women walks by the studded windows
wears a head scarf and a fox coat
who is she in love with?
A man in solitude, drinking tea, reading a book
pretending not noticing the world around him
Now and then he looks up, I look in his thoughtful face
His book his best companion.
Where does he belong?
The chef behind the counter
curly hair and floppy clothes, dark eyes the smell of onion on his fingers
whats his childs dreams?

ACT LOVE
I am lost in your presence
You rip off my insecurities
and toss them across the room
Make love to my mind
give it endless epiphanies
so that my concsience
screams out
In raw pleasure
racking into every corner of my
dusty soul.
NOLLENDORFPLATZ
I wander
dirty muddy roads, the snow,
vanishes.
Wet transition, fill my lungs with water,
rainy days.
Women on the roadside pull off their skirts and show off their naked calves the greedy looking, in old BMW's sitting, shadows.
Drunken mortals, staggering through the night soak their pain in the pale glow of the Alk. A passing train, the screeching sound of the track grinding steel, lets hair on arms and legs stand on end
An outcry, the creaking sound
rests
A street dog, mangled, lies on the side of the track, partly, his dirty rests pulled by the ignorant train and nobody noticed, the poor dog.
Oh, how all these drunken dogs will end up, going around poorly. It is said, "Do not go here at night." But this is the light of Baudelaire, capricious personalities, cries, a fight through the night always recurring and under every pavement a poem awaits. Here you will find the dark side of your mind,
There, you walk for some time until your hands and feet are bloody, your veins clump together and your sex is torn apart with everyone's heart,
torn
and at dawn the mist of shame and everyone sleeps the day away.
MARBLE AND SEA
These are my teeth,
made of bone
I´m holding a rose in my right hand,
It´s made of wine
My breath is made of marble
my sorrows made of sea
Fishes lips as soft as breasts
Dolphins wear my smile
Everything weights less in water,
even grief
My feet are standing on moss
Starting to walk now
Shadows are dancing, but not mine
I´m walking til I drown,
loosing the ground under my feet.
This is where I wanna die.
Enflushed and skinned
Drowning deeper
I find my sea of sorrows
start drinking them away
spread roots
I leave my shadow as I vanish into the mud
reincarnate as a tree
look down to my shadow
to die thousand deaths
when the sun goes down
