Mister Miller: poem for three voices including Sean Penn’s (excerpt)

Verschenen in: Mijn Amerika
Auteur: Arjen Duinker


Would you walk away
Would you walk away with the cheerleader
                        No
                                                Would you
                                                Would you walk away
I would talk to her
                        Just for fun
                        Like watching ping-pong
                                                I don’t see any problem
                        Would you walk away
                                                I don’t see any problem
Her name is a story
                                                Her name yes is a story
                        Hi would you walk away with the cheerleader
Great story
                        Full of promise
                        Full of practice
                                                There you go the two of you
There you go
Are you shy
                        Hi cheerleader
                                                Hi story
                                                There you go
                                                I don’t see any problem
                                                Like watching ping-pong
The past is a noun
                        Well-known noun
We’ll see about that
                                                On the bridge crossing valleys
                        Crossing and cursing
                                                Cursing valleys cursing ping-pong
Having fun cursing
                        Would you walk away
                                               Because the past is a noun
                                                Because the past is not a trumpet
Sounds good
                        Good on the bridge
                                                Good for practice without compromise
Sounds good company there you go
                                                She plays bridge well
Sounds good
                        Having fun crossing full of practice
                        Eyes black skin black
                                                Blue and black
Because the past is not a compromise
                                                Because the past is blue and black
