BETWEEN- fragments on perennial interims...

ever since Archimedes'
noli me tangere (287-212 BC)

impersonators
of the "Almighty"

when
they will

they will
obedience

they always speak their will
only from within an hierarchy

the dominant always
command the dominated: obey !
the dominating will

yet their very own identity
their will
always disappear
behind their guise of choice

their will, allegedly never their own
their very own force
disappears
within the name of the State
so empowered by rules
from within the "Almighty"

long and short history
of the mighty

thousands upon thousands
of not only professors
got their will confiscated

including all monies all possessions
including all their very own life

history plays
yet seldom the new

only repetitions
surprise
only a few

to conformity of thinking

of conformity to feelings

for
groups and troops

soups
conform to everyone's
uni-taste

a play of games
only happens from within rules

rules mask as games
all play masks rules

truth an amoral fight
against your nature

one dies many a death

a friend moves away and so he's no longer;
another friend met a "better" friend,
so he's "in love" more within himself

and so one goes back to one's vocabulary
the Latin the Greek,
worlds that keep existing
in books
in classrooms
in teachers

so it was natural that one day
I removed myself and took distance from humanity

after all, they die one by one or en mass
on the battle fields
those warring parts of life's culture
funeral rites playing false roles
heroics and sacrifices

but language keeps on flying towards you
words you once before heard
and often overheard
in the worst pubs...
and classrooms...

but one did not mind the "dirt" in words
hatred has its institutions, its professions
followers leaders
branded words

too many words
turn the animal
into forms of human labels

nature grows you
culture frames you
