some horses have wheels and blankets against the rain
some horses have wheels and blankets against the rain. we saw them disappear in the commotion. there were also tomcats that hastily mounted their multi-legged being. in the tearoom the years flew by. china was never far away. gentlemen in tropical kit came with raspberry tart and served it with great pleasure.the tube was late. when the doors opened glasses got off deprived of all form. on the platform a small army of gold shoes passed by.

sommige paarden hebben daar wieltjes en dekentjes tegen de regen
sommige paarden hebben daar wieltjes en dekentjes tegen de regen. we zagen hoe ze in
de drukte verdwenen. er waren ook katers die inderhaast hun meerbenig wezen
bestegen. in de theesalon vlogen de jaren voorbij. china was nooit ver weg. er kwamen
heren in tropenkleding met frambozentaart en serveerden die volgaarne.
de metro was te laat. toen de deuren opengingen stegen brillen af die van elke vorm
ontdaan waren. op het perron trok een klein leger gouden schoenen voorbij.
