                                              a cheerful evening
                                              
                                              1. swaying
                                              ashen backs
                                              of elephants
                                              like grass in their passing
                                              shake the bushes
                                              rip off a few branches
                                              to chew on slow and pensive
                                              
                                              2. the cook
                                              for the food
                                              
                                              3. for a westerner
                                              what westerner
                                              does not have

                                              een vrolijke avond
                                              
                                              1. deinende
                                              grauwe ruggen
                                              van olifanten
                                              als gras in het voorbijgaan
                                              schudden de struiken
                                              sleuren een paar takken af
                                              om bedachtzaam te vermalen
                                              
                                              2. de kok
                                              voor het eten
                                              
                                              3. voor een westerling
                                              welke westerling
                                              heeft niet
