(Translation: Paul Vincent)
‘Swimming is licentiously sleeping in thrashing water’
PAUL SNOEK
Every swimmer swims a sleeper further
in the other, dark hemisphere. Each floating, each crawl stroke
increases a feeling of weightlessness in those who
nod off on the other side of the world. Someone must now say
that there are always far more sleepers than on the waking side
swimmers, so that it is only possible
if whoever boldly cleaves through water pulls with them
a gigantic imaginary bouquet of side-sleepers,
tummy-turners, back-liers. Somewhere I must be received
with great consideration after presenting this fully stamped
swimming card.
