Avstå från tragedierna V

som en hund skall du vara för det betyder mjuk myspäls och bra huggkäft vid

sidan av estetiskt positiva egenskaper #partnerbyte #irl #attack

_{Den sista dagen dröjer. Nu skickas våra}

_{önskemål via robotförmedling ner till Asami}

_{Kannon, där misslyckandena får bo i tusentals}

_{seende händer längst ute på fibrerna, som lever}

_{böljande uppåt från natthimlens botten genom}

_{ögonen. De ligger i skärvor, ögonen. Vi har sovit}

_{för lite, börjar upprepa oss.}

Refrain from Tragedies V

you should be like a dog because that means soft cozy fur and a jaw good

for biting in addition to positive aesthetic qualities #partnershift #irl #attack

The final day is delayed. Now our wishes
are sent via robot-mediation down to Asami
Kannon, where the failures can live in thousands
of seeing hands at the tip of the fibers, which live
swelling up from the bottom of the night-sky's through
the eyes. They are scattered shards, the eyes. We have slept
too little, are starting to repeat ourselves.

Language: spanish

Renuncia a las tragedias V

como un perro debes ser porque implica piel de peluche y fauces

para morder junto con cualidades estéticas positivas #swinger #irl #ataque

El último día se demora. Ahora, nuestros deseos

son enviados vía robots hasta Asami Kannon,

donde los fracasos pueden vivir como miles de

manos videntes en las puntas de las fibras, que viven

en oleadas hacia arriba desde el fondo del cielo

nocturno a través de los ojos. Yacen en pedazos, los ojos.

Hemos dormido poco, nos empezamos a repetir.

Verzichten auf Tragödien V

V
wie ein Hund sollst du sein was heißt weicher Kuschelpelz und gutes Schnappmaul
neben ästhetisch positiven Eigenschaften #partnertausch #irl # attacke

Der letzte Tag verspätet sich. Schon schickt man

unsere Wünsche robotervermittelt an Asami

Kannon, wo die Niederlagen stecken in Tausenden

sehender Hände bis in die äußersten Fasern, pulsieren

aufschwappend vom Grund des Nachthimmels durch

die Augen. Die liegen verstreut in Scherben, die Augen. Wir haben

zu wenig geschlafen, beginnen uns zu wiederholen.

Leif Holmstrand

* 18.04.1972, Mariannelund, Sweden
lives in: Malmö, Sweden

Leif Holmstrand is a poet, artist and musician born in 1972. Holmstrand lives in Malmö in southern Sweden and published his first collection of poetry, Stekelgång (Sawflywalk) in 2002. Since then published more than 30 books and chapbooks, both poetry and novels as well as artist-books. He has also published three collections of poetry under the penname Anna-Maria Ytterbom.

As well as an artist and as a writer Holmstrand has recieved a number of rewards and prizes, including the prestigious Mare Kandre Prize.

Holmstrand's writing reflects a restless practice that freely moves in a non-straight historiography. Lately his poetry has approached magical chants and invocations and his readings merges with his performance art. All to delineate possible life in a moribund world.
