the re-recognition of unknown animal species and their riders in khaki...

***

the re-recognition of unknown animal species and their riders in khaki... deliver it like a multiple, magic rituals as love spells.

..............................this sole encounter with my best friend. waiting for an object is a part of it. so much

for labor that remains permanently unskilled..... flattened by an asphalt roller the shar pei grumpily pulls itself back together.

as long as the unwritten life lasts in its written laws. the dermal ridges needed only an unspecified moment to unfold.

wipe off the fingerprint from the finger.............. you would drink with your mouth at the predetermined breakaway point.

........................in which the nearby treetops are reflected. yet to stand a little in the unclothed need for power. and then the identical,

the walk of the shar pei, falling alone into different times................... violet palms, bent by this cyclone. you diagram your concept of bliss for me.

de herkenning van onbekende diersoorten en hun berijders in kaki...

***

de herkenning van onbekende diersoorten en hun berijders in kaki..... verspreid dat
als meerlingen, magische handelingen als liefdesvuur.

…………………..………….de enige ontmoeting met mijn beste vriend. het wachten
op een voorwerp hoort bij hem. dat wat

de ongeleerd blijvende arbeid betreft.........… de shar-pei, door een wals overreden,
komt knorrig weer overeind.

zolang het ongeschreven leven duurt in zijn wetmatigheid. minutiae hebben slechts
een onbestemd ogenblik nodig voor hun pop-up.

je vingerafdruk van je vingers vegen………..................… op de gewenste breuklijn
zou je met je mond drin¬ken.

…................…de omliggende toppen spiegelen zich erin. nog wat in de ongedekte
machtswellust staan. en dan dezelfde,

alleen in verschillende tijden vallende tred van de shar-pei……..…. paarse palmen,
door een cycloon gebogen. je licht me je notie van geluk toe.

***

die wiedererkennung unbekannter tierarten und ihrer reiter in khaki... trag das aus
wie mehrlinge, magische handlungen wie liebeszauber.

.............................diese einzige begegnung mit meinem besten freund. das warten
auf einen gegenstand gehört zu ihm. so viel

zu ungelernt bleibender arbeit..... der shar pei, von einer straßenwalze überfahren,
rafft sich mürrisch wieder auf.

so lange das ungeschriebene leben dauert in seiner gesetzmäßigkeit. den minutien
genügt ein nicht datierbarer moment zum aufpoppen.

sich den fingerabdruck von den fingern abwischen............... an der sollbruchstelle
würdest du mit dem mund trinken.

.........die umliegenden wipfel spiegeln sich darin. noch ein wenig im ungedeckten
machtbedarf stehen. und dann derselbe,

allein in verschiedene zeiten fallende gang des shar peis............... violette palmen,
von einem zyklon gebeugt. du erörterst mir deinen begriff des glückes.
