Protected: Poetisches Spannungsfeld zwischen Ernst und Unernst

There is no excerpt because this is a protected post.

Imaginäre Schüsse ohne Ziel

Ist es denn vermessen
Wenn ich etwas selbstvergessen
An der Ehre eines Menschen rühre
Und dabei kaum Argwohn spüre

humor ist in wahrheit mein trost und halt

und wenn ich doch das licht seh in der nacht
wie um uns her die zuversicht entfacht
wenige gedanken sind es nur
dennoch scheint es gegen die natur

Generation Crash, the last dance

Ich tanze zum Wiegenlied des Mooses
In den Wind hinein
Schließe meine Augen
Lasse mich in eine Ruhe hineintragen

Sonnet #56: Traumdeutung

Denn alles, was wir sind, verlangt nach mehr
In Heiterkeit und Ernst gewinnt der Geist
Das leichte Leben fällt ihm nicht mehr schwer
Wenn in Gedanken er die Welt bereist

© Dominik Alexander / 2024

Am Horizont fahren die Panzer auf

Das weite Feld erschließt sich nicht
Wenn du nur über reife Ähren streichelst
Die Hoffnung ist für alle da
Träumst du

Wenn der Wolf den Wind anheult

Düster hängen die Gedanken über dem dunklen See
Es frohlockt der Rabe
Es vierblättrigt der Klee

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!
