Red zone
Minefield
The epicentre of a disaster
Spin as you wish
Everywhere explodes
Fear, despair, helplessness
It penetrates my bones and flesh
Guilt and SHAME
In the genitals and pelvis
In the abdomen and chest
With each movement
As a bulimia patient
I want to vomit
Stress in every cell
As the cancer spreads and takes over
To stay or to go?
Or to run?
Or to step on a mine so that everything finally ends
Inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale.. Inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale
Looking ahead
Looking underfoot
Sapper shovel pressed in my hand with white fingers
I Can
Relaxation
I Do
I will die in a battle
I will die as a hero
I will save that little girl
Who has not lost faith in
LOVE
