Stone on Stone

Stone on Stone, 2015

Brand New Pedestrian

Today
it has been three days since
my little grandchild
started to walk
For a moment
she looks like
a dangling
dead drunk
old man
The next
A little tightrope walker
on her way across the steel wire of being.

Translation: Egil Dennerline

Inner Chest of Gold

A stone fell
from my heart
when it was over between us
and we parted ways 

Stone upon stone falls
from my heart,
and I am relieved
and reconciliated

Stone upon stone falls
from my heart
and I am relieved
without reconciliation
– but I forgive.

Translation: Egil Dennerline
