Dogtooth (Song)

Song composed for theater production Stadsparadijzen @ Zaal Athena (Antwerp), KunstZ.

I just remembered it's me.
A tooth - a dogtooth - growing through my right calf,
Electric stream crossing through my bones.

But all I feel is just outside:
My eyes open wider by themselves,
My soul stretches till my skin feels like close to shattering,
Just like a baby who wants to get born.

Now there is nothing more to listen from the world,
Just my ears screaming with silence
From inside out,
As seconds start to count themselves,
In my right calf,
Still never remembering what follows after One.
