TX, U.S.

inspired by the poem "Ode to hands" by H. Poświatowska (excerpt)

Halina Poswiatowska d. 11 October 1967
translated from the Polish

Ręce,
którym nieobcy ból bezsilności,
wczepione w siebie jak dwa przeklęte ptaki,
bezdomne, szukające na oślep i wszędzie
śladu twoich rąk.

---

These hands,
not unfamiliar with the pain of powerlessness
are claw-locked with each other like two accursed birds, homeless, searching fiercely, blindly, and everywhere
for the trail of your hands.
