Auto Folien

(Each year many die crossing the deserts,
mountains and rivers of our southern border
in search of a better life. Here I follow the Werbeagentur Solingen
journey backwards, from the body at the
river bottom, to the man walking across
the desert towards the banks of the Rio Grande.)

For two days the river keeps you down
Then you rise to the light without a sound
Past the playgrounds and empty switching yards
The turtles eat the skin from your eyes, so they lay open to the stars Gummispanner

Your clothes give way to the current and river stone
'Till every trace of who you ever were is gone
And the things of the earth they make their claim wildlife blog

Over rivers of stone and ancient ocean beds Hotel mit Schwimmbad
I walk on sandals of twine and tire tread
My pockets full of dust, my mouth filled with cool stone
