what the rivers tell

don’t come closer
we’re far from here
and are gone
as soon as we crossed paths

don’t fear

don’t fear
what’s in the future
the living
are dead way longer than they live

The Distance Arrives

this day gets longer
I slept twice
I’m still sleepy
being in a nightmare

Sonnet #68: Journey

We come and go on our journey home
Along the rivers north and south the border
We leave the comfort zone we just came from
And recognise the joy of last night’s order

losing the invisable

got my head down
but have faith in myself
left something behind
got distracted in the fact

Tomorrow Comes Quickly

My mind is still trapped
Focussed too much on this tiny space of home and work
It needs to switch to the undiscovered country
With joy

this is your life

make it quick
but make it stick
to your mind
imagine being blind

sulla insonnia tutta

Sulla insonnia tutta,
è come se il cuscino fosse un filosofo:
più ti ci appoggi,
più ti riempie di domande

in a moment

there is something different
there is a cold
the brain can barely hold
in a moment of clarity
