AFTER EARLY MORNING – Poetry, by Inger Christensen

AFTER EARLY MORNING

“After the first morning
I look for the faint flue language.
Again and again I kiss
the memory of the waken! waken!
The sun and the wings that will mix,,
in brown steam morning.
What you have given to my thoughts
is the opposition of the sting
hidden in my flower pounds.
What you have given me is mere morning,
my burning desire: to wake up.”

Poet, novelist and essayist, has left us poetry collections that address the philosophical issues, but also social. Inger Christensen was born in Vejle in 1935 and died in Copenhagen in 2009.
