Homo Defektus [English translation]

You must not act like a petrified sculpture

A crap actor on a puppet stage

the one and only lost existence

A dead tourist on a ghost gondola

It seems empty and rubbish from here

A stuttering, deep-frozen god is watching

A schizoid Micky Mouse is playing music

to cats on a honky-tonk piano for it sees a heavenly sign

Wounded wings on an operating table

A zombidream is hiding in the bush

Babylon burning in a TV show

Christ is learning how to hate in the Lipót (a former home for mentally ill people in HU, Budapest)

All that willpower straining against one another

Exhaling in catatonic spasms from desire

There’s mud and blood on my tongue

A lead Napoleon takes his revenge

I am here, so open the gates

Hear my cursed name

Slap my face hard, you moustached angels

Show me where love is

I tossed the coin, but it fell on its edge

A silent war with muted weapons

Nothing stays the same

At once beauty and beast
