Another poem by Martin Reints in English and Danish translation


Twilight without end

A sudden resolve
while the execution of the previous resolve is still underway

incidents
during other incidents

I can still remember that I had planned something
but already not what
but already almost why once more

a lick of paint
where you can imagine another lick of paint

a collision
but the bang is still to come.



Skumring uden ende

En pludselig beslutning
imens udførelsen af den foregående beslutning stadig er i gang

begivenheder
under andre begivenheder

jeg husker stadig at jeg havde noget for
men allerede ikke længere hvad
men allerede næsten igen hvorfor

en sjat maling
hvor du kan forestille dig endnu en sjat maling

et sammenstød
men braget lader vente på sig.
