a story
an apology
a language we use
no place left to turn
from history
banal sentiment
embellished
by government machinery
’98
divided chapters
isolated
insulted by ambiguity
a failure so complete
denied entry
all casual
light-minded melancholy
recurrent
meeting places
reserved judgement
faithless
holy textures
disparaged by media witch-hunt
winter 1975
a story by mistake
improvised
out of tune
we two
constrained
like jarrett
past midnight
in köln
