TEXTS AND TRANSLATIONS
Gagot
Sydney Guillaume
Since I rose this morning I’ve gone through ups and downs. Running around in circles like a crazy mad dog. I speak, I sing, I sleep, I rise: I pray, I scream, it’s mess upon mess.
It’s a mess here, it’s a mess there. A mess up, a mess down, mess everuwhere, it’s mess upon mess
Messy are my thoughts, messy are my actions, messy are my words, messy is my vision
Everything is entangled: pain and joy, doubt and faith, disgust and hope, good and evil. My head is spinning and spinning, everything is entangled. What a mess.
Morning after morning, I fight a battle…
Nox
Elaine Hagenberg
Night and darkness and fog, confused world and turmoil. Dark gloom tears the earth, beats and stabs the sun.
