(Das Schwein mit dem Fernglas)
Excerpt:
I see the world enlarged — and it still makes no sense.
H2: Scene 1 – The Discovery
Early morning.
Mist. Silence. Suspense.
The pig adjusts its binoculars with great ceremony.
In the distance: civilisation, waving ironically.
Closer: another pig, pretending not to be observed.
Ich sehe, also schnaufe ich.
Each lens turns confusion into high-definition wonder.
Reality zooms in until it looks like fiction.
H3: Scene 2 – The Things Seen
One cloud shaped like a question mark.
One farmer arguing with philosophy.
One city growing diagonally.
One advertisement promising happiness,
valid until yesterday.
The pig scribbles notes:
Subject remains unclear. Recommend further staring.
H2: Scene 3 – The Revelation Through Magnification
Through the glass, truth shimmers — almost visible.
But the moment the pig blinks, it vanishes.
The moral:
seeing more does not equal knowing better.
Still, it looks impressive.
Binoculars: We bring the far too near.
Pig: Then send the near away — it’s getting awkward.
Together they invent distance as an art form.
H3: Abschlussoink – Bericht aus der Ferne
At dusk, the pig lowers the binoculars.
The world snaps back to regular absurdity.
Still, everything feels slightly magnified —
every sound, every shadow, every maybe.
DADA applauds quietly from the horizon.
And the pig writes its final report:
Observation complete. Sense remains optional.
