slow storyteller, almost --


somniferously.

Zywa Migrating

The brains above my mouth
make me eat on time
two extensions detect
food and that's how

it got out of hand

The eyes made the hands go
to the inedible world, and
made them build extra rooms
to store things

I too went
and from time to time
I migrated back to the past
my friends and family

with whom my itch started
to make cartwheels
to another world, away
from the table at home

where I had eaten enough
and was looking into the distance
where I hoped to be touched
by a new love

Zywa Space Pieces

The earth is a thin shell
around glinting hot
stardust, fertile
rotating space pieces

metabolized by cold
and the warmth of the sun
friction and volcanoes
yotta's of parasites

Bosses and bankers
place your bets
with dynamite and diamond
drills, really

it's nobody's fault when it goes wrong
Perhaps there is a higher will

We don't have to ask ourselves
how it would deal with it

because we know the answer
within living memory: due to
providence it would
go the way it goes

Zywa Little blood trunks

The big boat, belly full of colour
bodies, floated up to the clouds
no longer moves around
the high mountain
which begins to grow down

Like a seed capsule, it snaps open
fertilises the slopes with blood
from the old world, with codes
of the secret of life
freshly written

going to travel over the earth
as little arks, swimming arks
crawling, walking, and flying arks
little blood trunks
full of prehistory

of the world
the real world
not the true one
that mankind
would create

Always novelties,

that is the evolution:


copying errors.

What is new is old,

because it does remember --


what has been before.


Wat nieuw is, is oud,Was neu ist, ist alt,
omdat het zich herinnert --indem es sich erinnert --

wat er is geweest.was gewesen ist.

The little mermaid:

on her tail, she got buttocks --


from all the sitting.
