Two bits of cardboard stuck onto each other.
Perfectly fitting, but you unmake me sober.

Three double bends with the bone folder.
A figure of a bird, and his broken cage lying in the corner.
Always wip, real noob, not native speaker al corrections-suggestions more than welcome.
An origamist took my heart,
folded it into a thousand pieces
and then called it art.

Hvidstrakte palæer af skarpe flader
Skarpe som papir, som origami
Hvidt og dødt fortsætter det mod horisonten
Klinisk og stilfuldt spirer kuplerne spidst
Spirer som larmen i vores hoveder
Larmen af ingenting
Larmen af hvidt

Origami cranes
Twelve steps, forty eight pure folds
  Peaceful paper cranes.

A wish unfulfilled
She'll never be reached
But we'll keep on flying
Higher and higher
Above the clouds
Beyond the horizon
Till the air turns thin
Where like blade cuts the wind
We'll keep on rising
Higher and higher
Till our hearts turn blue
Till the blue turns black
And then white: nothing
And then perhaps
We could touch her heart
In the beautiful land of the rising sun they believe cranes live a thousand years, and if you fold a thousand origami cranes (one for each of their years) one wish of yours will come true.
Folding them didn't make my wish come true, but I guess wishing for a heart is wishing too much. So I set them free to roam the sky, maybe that way they'll reach something I can't.
