  • Texte de A Walk Through the City

    [traduction française non disponible]

    a walk through the city,
    sunlight edge
    and the cymbal crash

    follow the burning signs,
    the trail of bullets,
    the embers dying

    discarded shoe
    like an open mouth,
    a burn on the pavement

    a house
    containing three children
    flashes once
    and is gone

    a single robbery

    somewhere a man
    is carving himself
    to death
    for food

    day like an open wound

    in the instant of the newsflash,
    in the terror of the merchant,
    in the gleam of the coin,
    the child's eye

    it occurs at gunpoint,
    the barrel
    laid across the heart

    murder, the judgement,
    assault
    with a lethal instrument

    the whole city staked out
    with eyes
    like a giant crystal

    catching the angles of light

    the city borders the skin

    Norbert Ruebsaat
