Unloving Crimes

A poem from 1986

dashed my head against a rock
and boredom flew out through the crack
in the skull
take away my personality
and you are left with nothing
throw me into the sea
and see what I care
if I fear tomorrow
then what can I do today
to make any sense of these tortured thoughts
kiss my mind
and you may find that evil spirits will fly
into the hell that they deserve
where will you go
if I throw you away
why do I care about your destiny
do I care or am I an unloving crime
dressed in human skin
stupid people being insensitive to me
me, to you
you, to me
in this deep façade which I call economy
and lust. Selfishness
is making me violent
try not to tip the balance
or you will regret the confusion that follows me
into the second hollow sound of raining in my heart
dash me to pieces please
maybe then you will be happy
