He flaunts the flowers,

gives them to me, ignorant --


what it is to pose.


Hij pronkt met bloemenEr prunkt mit Blumen
en geeft ze mij, onwetend --und gibt sie mir, unwissend --

wat poseren is.was posieren ist.

Zywa Madelief asks

if we are happy, because
even though the world should be better
you can still be happy there

if the people around you are happy
including the grandads and grandmas
abroad

Yes, we are happy
the neighbours do argue sometimes
but when we lie awake
we do so in peace

We have breakfast and we take a walk
it doesn't have to be special
what you experience together

Grief cannot be avoided
but we do not suffer pain
and are not humiliated

We have time for the splendour
of the trees, music, so much
that helps us on the days
when the sun is not shining

I am breathing white

balloons into the water --


floating to the sun.


Witte ballonnenWeiße Luftballons
adem ik in het water --atme ich in das Wasser --

zwevend naar de zon.schwebend zur Sonne.
