Lucky One

Posted by Dominik Alexander on 01/02/2025

being the centre of a storm
I am as calm as you see
eternity —

during my entire day
I tried to put noises away
but I’m living alone
and having it calm
around me
would be pleasing
if it wasn’t for my thoughts —

I’m living alone
but in my head lives a state
and none of those beings is my friend
there are continuing arguments
pro and contra about
the unsolved philosophical questions
that weren’t solved for centuries
and won’t certainly be solved
by me —

but thinking about them
brings me close to eternity
with my univeral family
and there is
where I can finally find
my inner peace —

thinking most of times is torture
but when I’m calm and having fun
I’m the lucky one.

WRITING Creative writing is my personal way to deal with the world we live in. I try to figure what’s going on and how to make sense of it. Creative writing is also giving something from me to you to enjoy, to think about or just share some time together online.

POEMS On this page I started with poems because it’s an easy way for me to write something off my chest. Poems are about one tiny aspect in life, about a special feeling or a combination of both. Poems have the power to connect people in a special way. You can think about a poem for far longer than it lasted reading it. You can sing poems; you can think about poems; you can recite them out loud. Tell me what you think about my poetry. Or suggest a collaboration.

ART I already told you that I started with poems in here. But that’s just the beginning. I also write sonnets, short shories, novels, odes, haikus and more. I design my own books, do letterpress from time to time and like to make more collages. Some of it I put on here. Some of it I’m still working on. Most of it is still in my mind.

COLLABORATION I’d like to work together with other creative people. Do you like one of my poems and would like to make a song from it? Contact me! Do you have an idea but not the right words? Contact me! Do you like one subject I have written about and want to learn more? Contact me! Are you a writer but stuck in procrastination? Contact me!

FUN Sometimes I write about dark subjects. Sometimes I write about light subjects. Most of times I write because of the fun of writing. Because it’s healthy to do. Writing clears the mind. And, yeah, writing is fun. Do you like to learn more? Contact me!
