Johannes S. H. Bjerg

Some ku


taking the words right out of my fingers

*
moist of hands
pavements for as long as
*

the plains birds hover academically

*
open hands (again)
                                              echo-birds
at the crematorium

*
t a l k a t i v e
harbours are where

*

taken orally and outside sand in machines
