for Jan Wagner

behind extensive sheep lay Premium Highlands,

its alphalandscape was instantly cognizable, its adequate design

a middle stratum in the prime of life, you spoke

of mountaining together, several egocentric pubs later on

of manic harvest, who knows, these foreign parts were intransitive

home—and therefore dangerous. they kept malt-cows

which acted like malt-cows. every day contained perhaps

ten kilos of beauty. sun-ups like monsoons.

rainfall sometimes like the light, sometimes like substantives.

around us so-called Glenn Gould birds. peculiar windows.

they too were based on charter language. bridging

what was a gap. and parting your gaze followed them

in an oddly Victorian way.

for Jan Wagner

behind ample sheep lay premium highlands,

the alpha landscape immediately recognizable, the adequate

design tectonic middle class in its prime. you talked

of mounting together, a few egocentric pubs, later; of manic

harvest, who knows, these foreign parts were an intransitive

home ― hence dangerous. malt cows were bred

that acted like malt cows. every day contained approximately

ten kilogram of beauty. sunrises like monsoons,

precipitation now like light, now nouns.

around us so-called Glenn-Gould-birds. strange windows.

they too were based on a charter language and bridged

something that was lacking. on leaving you gave them

a peculiarly Victorian look.

Jan Wagnerile

lopsakate lammaste taga laius Premium Highland,

alfamaastik oli koheselt äratuntav, adekvaatne disain:

tektooniline keskklass oma parimates aastates. sa rääkisid

ühisest mounting’ust, peale mõnda egotsentrilist pubi

maanilisest saagist. kes teab, see võõras maastik oli intransitiivne

kodumaa — ja seepärast ohtlik. peeti linnaselehmi,

kes käitusid nagu linnaselehmad. igas päevas oli võib-olla

kümme kilogrammi ilu. päikesetõusud nagu mussoonid.

sademed vahel nagu valgus, vahel nagu substantiivid.

meie ümber niinimetatud Glenn-Gould-linnud. veidrad aknad.

ka need baseerusid tšarterkeelel. ning ületavad

midagi, mis puudus. lahkudes vaatasid sa

neile kummaliselt viktoriaanlikult järele.
