Gespenster – Scriptorium '77

Xmas Noir

Es liegt ein Schleier über meinen Augen
Fürs Bett bin ich noch nicht bereit
Ein Brüllen liegt im Kopfe mir
Bald schreien sie wieder: Seid bereit

Sonnet #57: Traumtänzer

Gespenster hängen in den tiefen Träumen
Das Licht springt an und geht bald wieder aus
Was wir an Unrat uns ins Hirn verräumen
Will irgendwann vollständig wieder raus

Da draußen ist die Welt mein Kino

Das sanfte Nieseln klopft mir sacht ans Fenster
Will zu mir rein
Doch lässt es sein
Mich gar zu sehr darum zu drängen

words come closer

they are crawling from the outside
deep inside without a fight
you let them in
with a grin

Drei Ideenträume

Mal wieder bis zum Morgen gewartet / Nachgedacht / Die Nacht verlacht
Wie Gespenster leuchten / Die Ideen meiner Zukunft

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!
