Nichts bleibt. Der kalte Blick
...gewahrte Kälte,
indes ein Bild von Feuer
sich
durch das Wort frisst,
das in deinem Munde ringt. Die Welt
ist
was du ihr überlässt, ist nur
du
in der Welt, die mein Leib
betritt: dieser Ort,
wo es an allem mangelt. (Brandstiftung)

Gedanken und Gedichte, in denen ich einen wahren Menschen erkenne, der BrandstiFtern der Worte ihren jämmerlichen Spiegel vorhält, den Abstieg ins pure Nichts ihrer Seele empfiehlt, um mit flinken Spießen der Flammen sich selbst heimzuleuchten, dorthin, wo eine einsame Sehnsucht angstvoll kauert: ein sprachloser, ängstlicher Mensch, umweht und bedeckt von inszenierten Sprachteppichen, die er wärmend über sich und eiskalt über andere legt.

Hervorragend übersetzte Gedichte, links Englisch, rechts Deutsch - ich vertiefe mit diesem Buch meine Kenntnisse einer Sprache, die nur an der Oberfläche einfach scheint.
