For those who never did see the more humble parts of Tom Tuff´s character, it might seem unbelievable that he could write such an "appealing" text. (Even if it of course not was ready when we got it.) But maybe this was the "real" Tom Tuff, despite all his constantly positive statements about everything and everyone.

Minns

Jag kan nästan minnas
var jag kom ifrån
fragment av ett liv
blickar över axeln
vi drack oss genom vattenfall av längtan

Jag kan nästan känna
att jag finns
delar av verklighet
fötter som trevar efter upptrampade stigar
Vi korsade våra ben i jakten på osynligheten

Jag kan nästan önska
att jag överlever
men jag räds det nya
söker bara det invanda
vi tar oss kanske ändå oskadda igenom

 

Remember

I can almost remember
where I came from
fragments of a life
glances over shoulder
we drank our way through waterfalls of desire

I can almost feel
that I am
parts of reality
feet groping for beaten tracks
We crossed our legs hunting for invisibility

I can almost wish
that I survive
but I fear the new
look only for the usual
still we might get through, unhurt
