Andy Fierens

non zonder god

Язык: голландский

Переводы: немецкий (Nonne ohne Gott)

non zonder god

op een bank in het park
bij de vijver
zit een non zonder god

ze kijkt naar de eenzame beflijster
die weer staart naar mij

ik ben ik dat wil zeggen mossel noch worst
ik ben een hond die ruikt aan elke rok
op zoek naar een aha-erlebnis

niemand die me vraagt
gaan we straks naakt joggen
ze hebben rukwinden voorspeld

en ook ik zeg tegen niemand in het bijzonder
als ik jou niet had schat dan had ik iemand anders

nee echt dit is de mooiste lente in jaren

Big Dirty Butterfly and Wonderbra’s & Pepper Spray, the titles of the two poetry collections by Andy Fierens are revealing in their contemporaneity. Who is still thinking poetry always sings about sublime subjects on a sacred, respectful tone has to fundamentally rethink these opinions after reading these poems.

The poems of Andy Fierens are repositories of language material (brand names, puns and word play, quotations, fragments of texts heard on the streets, mangled texts , jokes ...) which is woven as boisterously as humorously into very readable texts that also function on stage.

In Fierens’ universe we meet an anti-hero who seduces women with a fake erection. Loudness shouts down moments of silence. But black humour and disrespect oscillate into a sensitive longing, a lack or a fear of abandonment. In a seemingly naive way Fierens mixes vulgar and revolting impropriety with tender, light beauty. Attraction and repulsion are playing with each other.

This poetry is hard, but not heartless.
