Programme note (Swedish):

Ser vingar från malarna, trodde att de var fjärilar.
Knastrande kroppar med vävar av silke.
Hänger, krymper ihop.

...ligger på en äng under solen, med myggor över ansiktet...

Programme note (English):

Wings from moths, thought they were butterflies. Crackling bodies with weaves of silk. Hanging, shrinking.

...lying in a meadow under the sun, with mosquitoes over the face...
