two schwitters and a gaze...

she is my fairy queen:
she
is my fairy queen.
her shoe
is my fairy shoe,
when i walk on her feet,
its heaven for me.
i wish from my fairy
heaven with her.
round and open
open through the water.
open in the air.
open and round,
round and open.
round on the corner.
who
understands
you?
and
during the night,
when darkness is open in the air,
all things are round
on all corners.

small chinese poem:
I stood before my iron front door.
my friend drove by on a dirigible bicycle.
then my thoughts remembered her.
