The last spoken word of 2010, with David Barnes stuck in the snow for 10 hours on the Eurostar,
Alberto back under the top hat, a very cosmopolitan intimate night (chinese poems and german rap and Victor Hugo’s ghost) and two very severe, strict, german, poetically rhyming judges named
Klara and Nora. Some highlights:
I, you are solid
When I press my fingers against your skin,
they don’t slip through like water and
though your thoughts may float apart
like less substantial matter your figure
remains whole and composed.
Ariel
It is here, brother,
in a drowsy ray beam sea
weeping for forever,
the ancient death in me.
William Clark
The world needs limits.
The world needs nipples.
Mandoline
There is no mercy in a live wire
No rest at all in freedom
Of the choices we are given
It’s no choice at all
The proof is in the fire
You touch before it moves away
You must always know how
Long to stay
and when to go
From Let him fly by Patty Griffin sang by Mandoline just before fainting.
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love
The love, the love?
Black Eyed Peas & Emilie & Melissa
Krimoun rapped in german so I couldn’t precisely get the words,
but on his myspace you can read some english versions…

And I have a wedding ode to fix before wednesday
So…
Ode to eternal love
Love, every day, every year, every decade
down hill up hill,
like two cyclists, like two mountaineers
climbing up each other,
with bed sores on the heart, blisters on the lips
and a jellifish sting for the eternal cheek to cheek….
Hurrah for the Bride and Groom, Merry Christmas and a happy new year!
