Donald Trump – Scriptorium '77

tell me more lies to make me happy

this is not the same old song
of black and white
it’s a tale of white alone
no black

You Came. You Saw. You Didn’t Conquer

It needs more than two legs
To walk
It needs more than two eyes
To see

The Unart of the Deal

Mein Unwort des Jahres steht bereits fest
Es ist nicht mal mehr ein Test
Ob sich das für eine Weile schlecht anfühlt

Losing My Respect

He wasn’t a hero of mine
But perhaps closest in line
To a politician with class
Without scandals en masse

New Axis of Evil

No day is like the day before
The toddler in the White House swore
To make a deal and start a war

Compensation

what you notice about the weak
they know where they can hurt others
and they will do

Wenn wir übermorgen erwachen, ist die Welt immer noch die gleiche

Wer fragt sich in der heutigen Zeit nicht manchmal
Wenn ich jetzt einschlafe und morgen aufwache
Ist die Welt dann wieder normal?

all das leid

dann schien der mond wieder so hell
lass uns doch noch schnell
in unsere stille eintauchen
bevor uns der widerhall die luft nimmt

Die Vereinigten Staaten der Plutokraten

Man kann sich natürlich hinter Platitüden verstecken
Kann versuchen wollen, nirgendwo anzuecken
Kann Versprechungen machen, die nicht zu halten sind

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!
