MANDAUGHTER

Faster, faster! They’ll catch you soon!

Jump in the well!

The trees have been singing about you too long

Why do you always have to give the show away?

The rivers ran the wrong way this year

And the pipes were filled

And the tanks were filled

And the locks were destroyed

And the corners surprised them

when they poured green drops in the fluid

Watch through the upper portholes

See them arrive – Lose your head

Make use of clay – Make use of straws

And the corners surprised them

when they poured red drops in the fluid

Do not pick the green, do not pick the red

Pick the blue one

which we have placed 3 crosses upon

(Paul Mozart – August 2002)
