Vieraan sanomaa [English translation]

Tall are the trees of my childhood

naked tree trunks

without wind, without birds

black stalks

As a child he never got lost in the forest,

even though he wanted to

Now he gets lost, although he doesn't want to

or even though he wants to

We look darkness into the eyes

The sleep that doesn't remain

in life but a brief moment

The sleep that can't be seen no more

than a brief moment

What you say is like the words spoken by a stranger

but please go ahead

for the thousandth time

What I say is like the words spoken by a stranger

but I go ahead and say it

and repeat it once more

Despair travels on buses,

on subway trains, on trains

stares at its tired faces

against the darkness in the windows

Seeing the rusty Ferris wheel

that creaks in the wind

like a world alone in the emptiness

in space
