Poem
Tom Van de Voorde
Vladimir Horowitz
Go on, sing, you arsehole,scratch your brownest wart
Let Scriabin ejaculate
with his lisp
into a posse of furs
of chewed-over whores
quietly smacking his lips
on the down-covered floors
Let banished years rattle
like salt crystal claptrap
the walls are scores,
with anus, duck, encore.
You don’t dare, you don’t
dare, but adore

Vladimir Horowitz
Zing dan, zing klootzak,krab aan je bruinste wrat
Laat Scriabin slissend
klaarkomen
tussen een partij bont
verteerde hoeren
likkebaardend zwijgen
op met dons beklede vloeren
Laat verbannen jaren bonzen
als zoutkristallen zever
tegen muren, partituren
met anus, eend, encore.
Je durft niet, je durft
niet, maar geniet.
