Green dress
It is the smallest child
of the universe.
She can’t see.
It is a light green
pair of trousers.
Small feet have been
captured by light blue shoes,
no wonder she can’t fly.
All of a sudden
in the middle of a book,
the dark dress has more
than one diamond.
It should have been
a sister, or younger child
while the bicycle drove
straight in the waters of all times.

Behind the sky
Michel Sardou – Une fille aux yeux clairs (1974)
I see, when I look
at the cover, it was the year of 1981,
one of our best summers; he wrote.
It is a dictionary, but the language
has not yet, been translated.
It is not very necessary.
In the backyard, words were counted
and I really don’t mind
if two letters will ever mean
more than three, exist.
It is just, that, no one asked me
to look in an old dictionary.

Sound by translucency
David van Horen
First, there was a new sound,
and after that,
another drop of water.
I knew then,
all of my life,
I was in the need
of a translucent clock.
In the silence,
across nature given
by old memories,
in hands was given,
a book of seconds.
She, asked herself
in the morning, what daylight
meant in her heart, but I know,
the soul was silently lost, in Time.

Thea Beckman – Hasse Simonsdochter, pagina 322 – 323
“Ze is het liefste, pittigste vrouwtje dat ik ooit heb ontmoet.
Niet half zo slecht als sommige mensen denken.
Hij moet weg, dacht Hasse zenuwachtig.
Jawel, zei ze koud. Deze Hasse maakte haar man wijs dat hij kon
vliegen en toen viel hij dood.
Dreunend sloeg Gerrit op tafel.”
“Ze was niet veel veranderd. Ouder geworden, ernstiger,
een trek van berustend verdriet om de mond. Maar de ogen
waren nog even groot, diep en zwart, en fonkelden nog even trots.”

Turned my back
Slowly, I am standing
before my windows.
I watch it all, fall down,
this Time.
Slightly, I have been
moving forward,
in all dreams and hopes.
Silently, I feel lovely,
I do not have to make
a decision, anymore.
I hear the music from far away,
continually playing around my existence!
The rhythm inside my sensitive soul
moves and I turn my back,
once, once again
before I decide,
it would All
fall down on me.

The bookstore
Suddenly, he was there, twice looking
at me, with a rest of flour on his lips.
I thought, I had to leave it all,
behind me, one day.
Somehow, I could not make up
my mind.
In the bookstore
of my grandparents,
there are no children playing,
no more.
They have forgotten
how to read or write.
Up high, I needed ladders,
all kind of stairs
to reach out to some excellent
qualified books.
I am trying to hold my balance.
Someone, she has been trained
if you could fall, in another story.
Someone has to be fantastic.

The second degree
He looked back, then.
As he was following me.
The young black boy was lifted,
for more than once.
I bowed my head,
left side, a bit.
I, who do not touch,
made a new degree,
to the small black no(u)se.
I put him, back slowly.
I was the one, who started
to talk, about skin.
He smiled,
in the same way
I reflected about my coach,
the best trainer.
And after that,
he made one victory!

The last rooster
In former times,
the sky was light blue.
A rooster had one task,
and a half.
If it was a dragon,
a balloon or rabbit;
the rooster was heard
all over the Place.
From far away,
her Voice was heard,
in more than two rooms
of a kind.
The mayor, here, has bought
new fishes, but he could not
find the very same rooster… .
A difference exists, namely,
between a split second, half a second;
and one second.
The story has been told, by people
who are darkened and brown,
not white as in my skin.
Because a rooster, has all kind of features.

Behind my office
There is a man,
behind the back,
who is not there.
There is a woman
in my office
represented by absence.
Now and then,
you see her walking
over here and there.
Silently, she goes, again
as if, she was never
supposed to be,
behind her own office.

The Zoo
In the old context,
the circumstances are
my freedom, of a distant mind.
I saw butterflies
across, along and between
natural trees, kept in an artificial
environment, with a bar for drinks!
In the Zoo,
behind glass of glasses,
spiders, insects and specific animals,
poison frogs or salamanders
are alive by my light.
I see, I saw
you all in the Zoo.

A silent painter
My father made one photograph
of my life and none of your pictures.
He never had the need to prove it,
that’s what his family already, not yet,
had wisely known.
The colour has not been seen.
