Berlin – Scriptorium '77

Klasse! Klasse! Klasse!

Egal, wo Grönemeyer spielt
Egal, wo er auftritt
Es ist immer Bochum
Das die Leute aus voller Kehle mitgröhlen

Sonntagsfrage: Welchen Unterschied macht das Täterprofil bei Amokfahrten?

Die Opfer von Amokfahrten gehen meist in der Anonymität unter; die Täter werden medial hofiert – oder eben gerade nicht. Ein Zeitbild aus Deutschland im Jahre 2025.

For Lunch to Berlin

On the surface we leave
Footprints on doorsteps
What a concept
Leave it on the ground

That Special Smell At Any Corner

Berlin is dirty
Berlin is loud
Berlin makes promises
Look at those clouds

Berlin After Sunday

Passengers passing by
Some with masks
Some without them
The daylight hits the soul

Wir machen uns ein Bild

Was wir sehen, was wir fühlen, riechen, schmecken, ist nur für uns wahr. Wenn wir es erzählen, kann man uns glauben oder auch nicht.

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!
