| Troosteloosheid van het bestaan
tussen slaap en wakker zijn Reflectie in reflectie biochemie van errectie Twee bij een: afmeting van een bed Twee bij een: afmeting van een cel Nacht in je armen, muur om me heen Opgaande gebaren, kou in m’n been Ingang voor Exit op rij voor Escape Verneuke leegtes gezweet op een tape |
Melancholy of existence
Between sleep and wakefulness Reflection in reflection Biochemistry of erection Two by one: Dimensions of a bed Two by one: Dimensions of a cell Night in your arms, The wall coming down on me Ascending motion, Chills in my bones Entrance to Exit In line for Escape Voids stuffed Sweated on tape |
