now, lean towards the light that makes night visible

the scent

of hyacinths

                        not small

                        enough

not enough

                        to not

                        have a name

to keep

the wind

still

                        the stream

                        with the mirrored

                        swans

.

nu, læn dig mod lyset, der gør natten synlig

duften

af hyacinter

                        ikke lille

                        nok

ikke nok

                        til ikke

                        at have et navn

til at holde

vinden stille

                        åen

                        med de spejlede

                        svaner

She might just say she’s a chair by a dim window

in its ocean

in the thimble

                         detachment?

the rain

falls only

                        I give up

                        a phone

on itself

                       no one

                       calls

.

Hun ville måske sige, at hun er stol ved et tåget vindue

i sit hav

i fingerbøllet

                          ikke-tilknytning?

falder

regnen

                          jeg afskaffer
                          en telefon

kun

på

sig

selv

                         ingen
                         ringer til
