about

This is an attempt to capture the feeling of sitting alone in the house on the cover, a bitter February morning. For that was what I did when I wrote this poem. The tawny owl that sounds in the background was recorded just outside my door. The simple melody is played by me on a Psalmodikon – a Swedish-made instrument with only one string – which was common among poor people in Sweden during the 1800s.

lyrics

Gömda under gyllenbruna örnbräken förblir vi dårar ifrån ingemansbygden.
Glömda av det stora själsliga armodet men ständigt andandes för orosfolk.

Här ärver vi vår längtan vår fruktan och vårt hopp.
Och arvet strömmar ständigt vidare helt oförhappat villkorslöst.

Kallraset sipprar in genom enkelglasen. Fukten borrar sig in genom bröstkorgen.
Det är som att somna om igen när barvintern viner över stubbåkern.

Det är som att hela tiden vakna på riktigt när kaffet står och puttrar helt för vår skull.
