Vieraan sanomaa [English translation]

Tall are the trees of my childhood

naked tree trunks

without wind, without birds

black stalks

As a child you never got lost in the woods

even though you wanted to

now you get lost even though you don't want to

or even if you do

We look the darkness in the eyes

sleep that doesn't stay

in the life other than for a brief moment

we look the darkness in the eyes

sleep that you can't see

other than for a brief moment

What you say is as if spoken by a stranger

but just go ahead and say it

for the thousandth time

What I say is as if spoken by a stranger

but I just go ahead and say it

and still repeat it

Despair travels on buses,

subways, trains

stares at its tired faces

against the darkness in the windows

Seeing a rusty Ferris wheel

that creaks in the wind

like the world alone in the empty

space
