"all the words I have found" |
A Collector
The things I found
But they'll scatter them again
to the four winds
as soon as I am dead
Old gadgets
fossilised plants and shells
books broken dolls
coloured postcards
And all the words
I have found
my incomplete
my unsatisfied words
Erich Fried
translated by Stuart Hood
(representing Austria in World Poems on the Underground)
