poem

the past 

wasn't better

the days were

not longer

but indeed 

there were

more people with 

crooked teeth 

and so I wasn't alone

on the island

a too warm October

some in thick jackets

because it's October

poem

leaves turn red

politicians reveal

their lack of morals

no ink on fingers

the news are online

no wish to touch

some so-called

realities

Stillstand

Der Neubau wurde fertiggestellt, doch niemand zog ein. Seltsam.

"...Rings um das Schloss aber begann eine Dornenhecke zu wachsen, die jedes Jahr höher wurde..." 

Herbsttag.

Hundert Jahre,

ein Prinz, ein Kuss.
