Klaus Høeck: 'Palimpsest': 'Wrapped Coast'





WRAPPED COAST
(1969)

i wrap a gauze ban
dage around my right hand that
i have dipped in red

ink after which i
seal it with gaffer tape then
i write this poem

to which i do not
give the title ‘wrapped hand’ (see
above) even though

for perfectly ob
vious reasons it is a
cack-handed poem
