Poem
Thomas Möhlmann
Agreement
We made an agreementfrom which millions of agreements grew
someone pointed at a stone and said stone
someone chopped down a tree and said wood
agreements soon covered the world
constantly branching and spreading
cocooning us in a world of agreements
someone pointed at the fire and said fire
someone roasted an animal and said meat
the agreements covered the world
branching and spreading, cocooning
us in a world of agreements
someone pointed at the stars and said
I will never leave you.

Afspraak
We maakten een afspraakwaaruit miljoenen afspraken groeiden
iemand wees naar een steen en zei steen
iemand velde een boom en zei hout
de afspraken spoelden over de wereld
en plantten zich onophoudelijk voort
sponnen ons in een wereld van afspraken in
iemand wees naar het vuur en zei vuur
iemand bakte een dier en zei vlees
de afspraken spoelden over de wereld
plantten zich onophoudelijk voort, sponnen
ons in een wereld van afspraken in
iemand wees naar de sterren en zei
ik zal voor altijd bij je blijven.
