JEG FLYR I NATT (AT NIGHT I FLY)
ReplyDeleteJeg drar dit vinden søker ly
Når den har løyet
Jeg ser skyene gumle
Månen opp
Jeg ser tankene mine, følelsene
Min kjærlighet braker
Som brottsjøer mot skip
Jeg står på toppen av sverd og spyd
Jeg går opp endeløse trapper og fjell
På spissen av gigantiske negler
Drikker ånd av svære begre
Mitt hjerte slår mot ingens bryst
Jeg vet ikke hva jeg skal fortelle det
Overfylt ensomhet
For mange enslige sjeler i
Én kropp
Månen er en utydelig preget sølvdollar
Den sover alene i sitt eget univers
Ingen stjerne lenger
I dag døde jeg
Jeg døde i går og i morgen
Jeg flyr i natt
Stanley "Spoon" Russell Jackson (1957 - )
Trans. to Norwegian by Ola Bog (1955 - )
