within seconds there is dust
prior to this was a civilization
with culture and a language
a nude girl is screaming
her mother tells her she’s only dreaming
but there’s nothing dream-like at all
teardrops enrich the ocean
women are crying for the lost
those who can’t be buried
freedom creates opportunities
the overwhelming feeling of the endless sky
green velvet under their feet
our life is stored in your museums
hands-on mentality out of boredom
try to think in another language
pictures create a society
movement is lost in history
at one point there are just letters left
insomnia crawls under the blanket
every night there is another ghost
doing is understanding.

Hey Wolfsrib, thanks for coming to my site to check out my poem. Loved your image because it illustrates this poem quite well. I always write the text first, then search for a fitting image, sometimes mine, most of time on Pixabay.
Well, I’m writing basically all my life which is about forty years already. Trying new things on an almost daily basis, so I’m still not famous ;)
Take care and best wishes, Alexander x
