Roland Smith, Peak

Knut Hamsun
“Stille. Ikke et Menneske omkring, intet Lys, ingen Støj. Jeg er i det voldsommeste Sindsoprør, jeg puster tungt og højlydt og græder tænderskærende for hver Gang, jeg må levere disse Kødsmuler, som kanske kunde mætte mig lidt. Da det slet ikke hjælper noget, hvormeget jeg end forsøger, slynger jeg Benet mod Porten, fuld af det afmægtigste Had, henrykt af Raseri, råber og truer voldsomt op mod Himlen, skriger Guds Navn hæst og indædt og krummer mine Fingre som Klør . . . . Jeg siger dig, du Himlens hellige Ba’al, du er ikke til, men hvis du var til, så skulde jeg bande dig slig, at din Himmel skulde dirre af Helvedes Ild. Jeg siger dig, jeg har budt dig min Tjeneste, og du har afvist den, jeg siger dig, du har stødt mig bort, og jeg vender dig for evigt Ryggen, fordi du ikke kendte din Besøgelsestid. Jeg siger dig, jeg ved, at jeg skal dø, og jeg håner dig dog, du Himlens Gud og Apis, med Døden lige for Tænderne. Jeg siger dig, jeg vil heller være Lakej i Helvede end Fri i dine Boliger; jeg siger dig, jeg er fuld af livsalig Foragt for din himmelske Usselhed, og jeg vælger mig Afgrunden til evigt Tilhold, hvor Djævelen, Judas og Farao er stødt ned. Jeg siger dig, din Himmel er fuld af alle Jorderigets mest råhovedede Idioter og fattige i Ånden, jeg siger dig, du har fyldt din Himmel med de fede, salige Horer hernedefra, som ynkeligen har bøjet Knæ for dig i sin Dødsstund. Jeg siger dig, du har brugt Magt mod mig, og du ved ikke, du alvidende Nul, at jeg aldrig bøjer mig i Modgang. Jeg siger dig, hele mit Liv, hver Celle i min Krop, hver Evne i min Sjæl gisper efter at håne dig, du nådefulde Afskum i det høje. Jeg siger dig, jeg vilde, om jeg kunde, råbe dette højlydt ind i din Himmel og hen over den hele Jord, jeg vilde, om jeg kunde, ånde det ind i hver ufødt Menneskesjæl, som engang kommer på Jorden, hver Blomst, hvert Blad, hver Dråbe i Havet. Jeg siger dig, jeg vil spotte dig ud på Dommens Dag og bande dig Tændeme ud af min Mund for din Guddoms endeløse Ynkelighed. Jeg siger dig, jeg vil fra denne Stund forsage alle dine Gærninger og alt dit Væsen, jeg vil forbande min Tanke, om den tænker på dig igen, og rive mine Læber af, om de atter nævner dit Navn. Jeg siger dig, hvis du er til, det sidste Ord i Livet og i Døden, jeg siger dig Farvel for evigt og altid, jeg siger dig Farvel med Hjærte og Nyrer, jeg siger dig det sidste uigenkaldelige Farvel, og jeg tier og vender dig Ryggen og går min Vej . . . .”
Knut hamsun, Sult
