I say everything twice
[24]
I do everything twice
[30]
each mistake and every betrayal
[32]
always twice: test! test!
[36]
I am a double-voiced bird
with a human face
[43]
I say everything twice
[47]
What I do I repeat twice
[50]
I have to repeat everything
[54]
my mistakes and my betrayal
[58]
Anyone there? Anyone there?
[61]
I am a double-voiced bird
with a human face
[94]
both feet deep in the future of the fairytale.
[102]
we are the offspring of our own imaginings
[108]
each one vying for sweet sweeter sweetest porridge.
[118]
each one eying up the annotated version of his nearest.
[128]
it鈥檚 going over the
top!
[153]
we hold the feeling of hunger
[156]
to be a heightened form of appetite
[160]
don鈥檛 know
the words to make the pot stop, we drink
two litres of water per day and turn the key
in the lock
[171]
for three or four days a year we
sit in front of our empty screens, offline
[183]
we take things easy, take the view
[191]
there鈥檚 nothing more to do
[195]
and while we stew the traffickers little boats
pitch through a simmering southern sea
[207]
in the dark of our machines
[216]
while you stew, there鈥檚 someone heading straight for you
[242]
O beautiful where are you
[254]
Come to me my beloved
[264]
Do you care who stayed back with me
[272]
Who stayed back with me
