Newborn Life

VORLESEN

Newborn life

 

Our first three years were a fight

Finally, in year four

We let our frontal lobe die

Didn’t think anymore, didn’t sink anymore

 

Blindfolded taking the maze

Jellyfish in the ocean

Love was thunder and haze

No more goal, no more notion

 

In year five then, we merged

In kind of implosion

Caused by a rising star

Which took us away to a journey so far

 

Hey, unborn life

Clear as a knife

Sharp as a shark

A poetry album with poisoned earmarks

 

A cloud of tears

Of joy, all so wired

Endlessly tired

Life in a cocoon, life as an open wound

 

Then that star fell on earth

Limpid and old like a monk

Tiny, winey and strong

And so much more real than his daddy and mom

 

Flesh, blood, liquids and slime

Grew the most perfect rhyme

We were so rich and so poor

Nothing was left, nothing to cure

 

Hey, newborn life

Clear as a knife

Sharp as a shark

A poetry album with poisoned earmarks

 

A cloud of tears

Of joy, all so wired

Endlessly tired

The world became wide – and yes, I love my wife
