The Bell and the Stains
(on
H. C. Andersen's birthday)
H. C. A.'s birthday
I wear two layers
of the emperor's clothes
unrequited love
stains and notches
in the diary*
delayed spring
I scout the waiting room
for the ugly duckling
failing at ballet
fearing the sky
as well as the ground?
subway station
a wino tries to sell me
used matches
9 meters of rope
a limp tin soldier
climbs
the social ladder?
eyes
as big as tea cups
the
old Major attends
the
gay parade
pest infected city
I'd clown around a bit
for a countess's
invitation
who's
not afraid of dying?
the
bell sounds
from
within the coffin
faeces diary
will Mrs. Heiberg
ever understand?
-
In H. C. Andersen's
diary he made a small notch, a small mark, in the margin each time he
had had a good masturbation
