Comment Poem by Ernst Jandl
Comment
That never
would he write
his autobiography
because his life
seemed to him
just so much filth
that only a few
points, bloody ones
he still remembers
but that he would
never hesitate
to reach into the filth
to pull out
what perhaps
could serve as stuff
for poetry
his disgusting
purpose in life
