Thor Sørheim: 'Novembers årlige tegn'

 


NOVEMBER’S ANNUAL SIGNS

 

The pied woodpecker hacks away at the telegraph pole

in rhythmic frenzy, the world was not created

once and for all, and even though we live because

we were born, we live just as much because as yet

we are not dead. It is a morning for clear mist

and genuine lies, and the world has not yet gone

to the highest bidder. On the fridge door I fix

the night’s dreams with a small magnet,

they will never return.
