The work is inspired by the haiku poem above by the old master Basho, here reproduced in two versions.
It is his last poetry - his death poem.
The mood is somewhere between dream and reality, the living and the dead where consciousness wanders by unknown paths.
Martin Lohse 2012
In Danish
- Jeg rejser
- syg
- Stille over
- visne marker
- Strejfer
- mine drømme
Værket er inspireret af ovenstående haiku-digt af den gamle mester Basho, her gengivet fra Hans-Jørgen Nielsen: HAIKU – en introduktion og 150 gendigtninger.
Det er hans sidste digt - hans dødsdigt.
Stemningen er et sted imellem drøm og virkelighed, det levende og det døde hvor bevidstheden vandrer af ukendte stier.
Martin Lohse 2012
