Almost perfect line


An almost perfect line
and I feel sad
bad
The next one starts with
the piano
los voetspore op my hartkamers
soos in seesand
tot die soutwater dit wegspoel
na ‘n ewigheid
onverstanbaar
onvoorspelbaar
Saggies tokkel dit rustig voort
en lei my na ‘n poort
van amper trane
en
stop.

tears in the mud



cancer of the heart
tears in the mud
tears in the mud
tears in the mud
tears in the mud
tears in the mud
tears in the mud
tears in the mud
ripped out your heart
tears in the mud
cancer of your heart
you fall apart
