Program note

In English

1.

Sick on my

journey,

only my dreams

will wander

these desolate

moors

2.

On a journey,

ill:

my dream goes

wandering

over withered

fields

This little solo 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 2003

In Danish

Jeg rejser

syg

Stille over

visne marker

Strejfer

mine drømme

Dette lille soloværk 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 2003
