Two poems from my first book of poetry “My Shoulders are bare without your Hands”, in Danish “Mine skuldre er nøgne uden dine hænder”, Attika 1990.

A LOAN


I borrowed your soul

but you'll get it back

tomorrow, at nine


when the fire in me

strangles your arms around my waist

TIME


Time,

as a painting

is watching over us

when we have forgotten

to love


Time

remembers us

when we were greedy, passionate


Time is crying with us in the dark

and laughs at our lies


Time has seen us completely naked


Time will sleep with us anyway

Mine skuldre er nøgne uden dine hænder
