Applaud Your Comrade (2019)



When your comrade deserves an applaud

Give it to him. 

There is nothing to hide, and

Nothing to lose.


Applaud him;

Applaud your comrade. 


Ego is like an iron bubble, that

Knows only to

Confine you. 

Suffocate you,

Alienated, 

You are desperately conceited; 

Yet so incredibly frail. 


Applaud your comrade; 

Applaud him.


Life with a comrade is, 

As if a young man 

With bread and glühwein, 

Approaches you, who 

Wear a frosted ushanka-hat, and

Tremble in the howling of 

Ethiopian wolves, 

Underneath the waxing moon.


Applaud him;

Applaud your comrade.
