Bauhaus Poem by Emlyn Wentwhistle

Bauhaus



Thia is the Bauhaus
where lumbering maverick hands
-a kind of tragedy unfolding-
mould cumbersome laminate
and cold implausible steel.

An odourless vision-
unwieldy, ill conceived
-the transformation of man
to machine-made man.

And looking outwards,
staid Fraulein Dambeck,
lips and nose pressed to recalcitrant glass,
performs industrial striptease.
