Tell Me More

fill me with information
so I can feel the sensation
of not knowing anything

sad is my new angry

follow me through the park
at night of course
when the stars are sinking
they fall through my mind

© Dominik Alexander / 2024

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

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

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!
