green for a reason

green means hope
if you look around
green is the main colour
even if you live in a big city

Miracles Happen Overnight

Forget about dreams
What you really need
Is sleep

Reading Your Mind

What a story we have
I want to behave
But my mind is spinning
While your mind is high

Make Orwell Fiction Again

Never listen to the voices
When they call
Never walk with the noises
They’ll eventually fall

too many thoughts about possibilities

the last day before tomorrow is near
the end hopefully not
but there are thoughts
about possibilities

there is a night sky and it seems shifted

on a trip to the shore
frightened to the core
binge-watching the whales
measuring the scales

Times Of Trouble Without a Plan

In times of trouble we seldom see who we’re used to be
We only live from day to day we can only pray
And gain nothing from it except for existing in a fantasy world

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!
