The nice gentleman

picked up a penniless boy --


who doesn't feel like it.


De nette heer heeftDer Herr hat einen
een jongen opgepikt die --Jungen aufgegabelt der --
er geen zin in heeft.widerwillig ist.

Zywa Crack between shame and decency

They slip in through a crack
between shame and decency
their bodies lie down

on the disposable covers
and smell the expectation
not the disinfectant

on my hands, not the rubber
around their longing, beating
for my proximity, their imagination

makes me desirable
the woman of their dreams
thought in the flesh

Outside, the Elephant waits
his eyes seem very small
peering inside

until the door opens
and his trunk searches for me
to swing me on his back

Zywa Forced peace

Walking past the signs Former
Red Light District
I know I'm dreaming
of a better future

I can imagine it much more easily
than what it is like
to be a man

who buys the use of a body
without any notion what's wrong
I must arm myself against him

Walls? Dullness? Claws?
And company, then I can
laugh at jealous eyes

and the greedy ones
looking away from me
to someone else - no one

will I greet as my master
everyone welcomes me, Servus
where there was once war

Red light, while I wait,

all the cyclists are passing --


The woman beckons.


Ik sta voor rood licht,Ich stehe vor rot,
alle fietsers rijden door --die anderen fahren durch --
De vrouw wenkt naar mij.Die Frau winkt mich an.
