Poem
Kerstin Hensel
SAINT
God, I give up.I'll make a monkey of myself too.
The worm
is ticking time away
under the wooden blindfold
of deaf
and stupefied dumb
humanity.
Is that my pedestal
wobbling
as I sit gobbling
television
through simian cataracts?
HEILIGER
HEILIGER
Gott, ach einen AffenBrauche ich zu dem ich mich mache, taub
Die Menschheit unter der Binde aus Holz
Schweigt, da der Wurm drinnen
Nicht richtig tickt Zeit Unzeit Wie
Kippelt der Sockel darauf ich
In Blindheit fern seh
