Jan Oskar Hansen

The Sage.

Train explosion in India, many dead and
wounded, black smoke, chaos and people
milling about; it was there on the news,
yet India, far from here, it looked unreal.
in the crowd I saw my brother, had been
dreaming of him all night, he didn’t look
like me, small white teeth glued to red
gums, in no special order; delicate hands.

A learned man who lives on the flesh of
calves, and drink goat milk for breakfast.
He looked straight at the camera willing
me to recognize his existence, I looked
down, put two teaspoon full of sugar in
my coffee and when I looked up he had
disappeared into the noisy crowd, and it
was time for the weekend’s football results.

Some More Graffiti

If we were supposed to talk
More than we were to listen
We would have one ear
And two Mouths!

I am
What I be today
Without you
Feels lousy
To only to start to say

This undying lust is hard to maintain
The choice of reality or innuendo
Passing us day by day
How am I going to play?

Transfixed between two points
When does this end?
This state of flux
It’s getting hard to gage

Something is missing in my life
Where do I belong?
Why is this taking so long?
Honey, please help me get home.

Internal Lusts

Two Poles
and I am dangling
inbetween

I cant see you
and on goes the war
I forget your smile
Demure at best

I love you honey
your the best
All the others
Mean nothing let it rest
Without you
Means nothing
to say the less

Yes Honey
Your my hope and love
Without you I dont know
how I am going to get on

Please help me get back home.
