Dear colleagues,
I need help with the late Benn poem "Destille" (I, stanza 6)
"vorbei, à bas und nieder
die große Konfession
à bas ins Hühnergefieder
konformer Konvention -"
Could anyone tell me what the "à bas ins Hühnergefieder" means and if it is a quote?
Thank you very much and greetings from sunny Germany,
