-01 atlantis (norsk)

poesien har vaert tapt. sjoeen den har tatt. saar taalmodighet.
ikke for aa bli stjaalet. men for aa bedre mitt navn. over jorden halvt herdet. en perle hugget fra stein. et barn hinsides enhver verdi. conformulous. du er en aand. nedsenking av flaugun. brannen er i skyene. aah lille under. veier til frihet leder vest. oest for eden. overgir til overflaten. folder linjer satt i papir. bevis paa gli. aa la meg ri. la meg ri.
horisont utvidet med stoerre vilje. gjort klar av radene. gjort klar av ro. ikke alle oss driftere er tapt. ikke alle oss droemmere er borte. det som er er for en grunn.
atlantis.

-02 atlantis (english)

the poetry has been lost. the sea it has taken. painfully patient. not to be stolen. but to better my name. above ground half hardened. a pearl carved of stone. born beyond any worth. conformulous. you are a ghost. immersion of flight. the fire is in the clouds. oh little wonder. roads to freedom lead west. east of eden. surrendering to the surface. folding lines inked in paper. proof of glide. please let me ride. let me ride.
horizon broadened with greater intention. made clear of the rows. made clear of the row. not all us drifters are lost. not all us dreamers are gone. that that is is for a reason.
atlantis.
