Eddy van Vliet: Dood

 

 

Eddy van Vliet

(1942-2002)

 

Dood

 

Dood. Heb geen angst. Talm niet

voor mijn deur. Kom binnen.

Lees mijn boeken. In negen van de tien

kom je voor. Je bent geen onbekende.

 

Hou mij niet voor de gek met kwalen

waarvan niemand de namen durft te noemen.

Leg mij niet in een bed tussen kwijlende

kinderen die van ouderdom niet weten wat ze zeggen.

Klop mij geen geld uit de zak

voor nutteloze uren in chique klinieken.

 

Veeg je voeten en wees welkom.
