POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Hej, I just stared to find myself again or back or for the first time. Writing helps me to see, to understand and digest whats happening around me and to me. Writing is no art, writing is to live. So I just try to do that.
Nothing special
Standing under a highway bridge
November wetness creeps between the zippers
A concrete column leans on her back
An 34 year old life on her shoulders
Alone in a crowd, a silent scream she didnt even heard her self
Washy grey eyes seeing nothing but the down spiral she fights every day
Blurry flashes of others joy and a taste of already breathed pleasure
The sound of a city full of wet lonely grey
I saw her waiting for nothing special
My feet still so alive from the last dance for this night
Sharing a smoke was what I offered ...
November wetness creeps between the zippers

Washy grey eyes seeing nothing but the down spiral she fights every day
Blurry flashes of others joy and a taste of already breathed pleasure
The sound of a city full of wet lonely grey
I saw her waiting for nothing special
My feet still so alive from the last dance for this night
Sharing a smoke was what I offered ...

Slip on your drivel
You gabble on and on
No interruption no point
Yapping out your insecurity
I would give my arm for a break
Soon I will cut off my own ear
You fill the room with pointlessness
Your talking wastes precious air
Watch your steps
Check the floor
You might tumble over my legs
Or my brain so sore
A broken jar and a nose bleed for free
Will cure me from your drivel
And set me free
No interruption no point
Yapping out your insecurity
I would give my arm for a break
Soon I will cut off my own ear
You fill the room with pointlessness
Your talking wastes precious air
Watch your steps
Check the floor
You might tumble over my legs
Or my brain so sore
A broken jar and a nose bleed for free
Will cure me from your drivel
And set me free

I wonder
If just your glance
Millions of nano flashes
Ocillate my mind to trance
Turn all my sanity into ashes
What would a touch do I wonder
Boil my blood I guess
Turn my breath to thunder
Rearrange my atoms - not more and not less
Millions of nano flashes

Turn all my sanity into ashes

We can do it all, can we?
How can we believe we can fly underwater
If we cant even go on the streets hand in hand
Why would we think we could ride a dragon
If we cant talk with eachother when we want
We dream of a family together
But cant even meet your friends
What makes us imagine to conquer the world
If we dont have the strength to break out of this tantalizingness
How comes that we plan a future
If we not even have the moment
Why we do that all?
Because we are in love
If we cant even go on the streets hand in hand
Why would we think we could ride a dragon
If we cant talk with eachother when we want
We dream of a family together
But cant even meet your friends
What makes us imagine to conquer the world
If we dont have the strength to break out of this tantalizingness
How comes that we plan a future
If we not even have the moment
Why we do that all?
Because we are in love

I can not
I can not
**********
I screen the horizon
For signs from the future
Blurry sky , glittering sun
Rising or descent i dont know.
I can not see
Only feel the crisp wind from the sea, the ocean of life
I can not hear
Only sense the vibration of the new,
Swelling beats of the tunes of fate
I can not move
Only try to stay in place
Holding on the hopes we have
I can not speak
Only look in your eyes
And I know you understand

Sclerotic memories
Sclerotic grey memories of the ease with your wife
Fossilized impressions of your own smile
What happened to your so well planned life
Can you even remember how happy you walked down the aisle?
Archived adventures in her leather skin binding
Can you recall the beginnings end
How did it come she stopped minding
When did you started to like to offend
When was the last time you called her a friend
Where do you go to find affection
Did you not see how she did constantly bend
Crying at night for all this rejection
Are you...

How far can you bend before you break?
How far can you bend before you break?
How long can you carry on,
how much more can you take?
Why cant you admitt to yourself
Why do you still hidde from us
When will you leave the range
When initiate the change?
Where do you want to fall?
Unseen and hard?
Or do you dare to let go
and fall into my arms?
How long can you carry on,
how much more can you take?
Why cant you admitt to yourself

When will you leave the range

Unseen and hard?
Or do you dare to let go
and fall into my arms?

Once we spoke the same language
I dont understand what you say
Anymore
Once we had the same visions
I dont see what you do
Anymore
Once we heard even the unspoken
I can not listen - you dont tell
Anymore
Once we had a future
Even the now is not real
Anymore
Once so close
We do not know us
Anymore
Once we loved
I do not

greedy alone
My wrist so numb
The yoniverse so sore
I think of you and
Still want more
The yoniverse so sore
I think of you and
Still want more

Sweet Valentine,
Sweet Valentine,
Your joy your pain are mine.
You say what I feel
Our fiction is real
I know what you think
Me the paper you the ink
My why makes you sad
Your fears make me cry
Your smile seeds my soul
Your details explain the whole
My signs make you hope
Both are we afraid of down spiral slope
My hope has no name
Not wanting back from where I came
Your joy your pain are mine,
Sweet Valentine
Your joy your pain are mine.
You say what I feel

I know what you think

Your fears make me cry
Your smile seeds my soul

Both are we afraid of down spiral slope
My hope has no name
Not wanting back from where I came
Your joy your pain are mine,
Sweet Valentine

Eternities to sun rise
white arms anchoring in white sheets
tensed fingers hold tight a nightdress woven by threads of time
Gliding heavy curtains flood the cambers of her heart with light
A heart beat cannons into the wooden chest and washy grey eyes long for bonding
Strong arms take up the glassy body and clasp the legs which can not walk
A warm rain showers the longing dry soul
Wrinkles of time breathing lust of live
Velvety fingers, foam dying too fast and the moment vanishes
A mist of silent tears
Towels scratching her translucent skin
A body jailed...
tensed fingers hold tight a nightdress woven by threads of time

Wrinkles of time breathing lust of live

Tastes along with you
Kissing your lips so soft so warm
Kissing your shoulder your neck your arm
To feel this is all I need
All tastes so sweet so sweet
We let go and dance horizontal Tango
We seem to have no limits no borders
I lick the sweat from your skin
Like a deep breath at the shore so salty so salty
As our lust grows to infinity
Tastes unite to trinity
Under the thunderstorm of desire
these electromagnetic impulses were our
the milk in the fridge went sour
Not back to normal pulse and regular breath
We...
