about the artwork
the war burns far away
but already everyone is hitting
its sog cannot free anyone
self-determination is stuck in the dirt
the screen is shooting
the onslaught is furtively enjoyed
in the bunker there is still bread
the evening dream turns red
(in peace there is war
whoever is inside can speak
the blood of flowers picks at the profile
the enmity is human infirmity
the tanks are stuck in the mud
excuses follow half a heart
the victors of last battles grin clammily
and show trials never make jokes)
Poem by Kirstin Breitenfellner
we live and then we are dead
mortality weights
