Stereotypes are both true and false.
Danish Modern
Their words contain letters
they don’t pronounce.
Their language contains words
they seldom say.
Their furniture does just what
it needs to do:
simple, sleek, stylish
and slightly cold.
All this makes perfect sense
until I see everyone relaxed
and smiling
in the King’s Garden
this sunny Copenhagen day.
