mind – Page 4 – Scriptorium '77

there is a key to everything but it takes time

sometimes on the road
there is a street among highways
one path along
where only grass belongs

O, wonders of this world
Languages
Religions
Deep beliefs and manners

Ready To Race

I’m ready to race
Shooting my mind into space
To cover the truth

tell me about this tomorrow again

there is a plan
then reality hits in
we always move on
but leave something behind

mind less power

the sirens call on Sunday
they use my phone
and make my father dial my number in the morning

Umami Existence

sitting in front of a screen for hours without blinking
isn’t umami —

working through headaches and pain
isn’t umami —

Forgive Yourself

When it’s Sunday and you’re down
Because nothing worked
And you’re just frown
Forgive yourself

you don’t mean anything to me

writing is a state of mind
you can learn it
to a certain degree
but if it’s imprisoned

immune to death

it’s never been the blank page
that i’ve been afraid of
there was no need

White Mind Behind Fences

The heat makes me tired
High temperatures are definitely not what I desired
When I thought about summer

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!
