Sonntag – Scriptorium '77

Und die Welt dreht sich weiter

Jemand wirft eine Banane ins Gras
Steigt in den bereitstehenden Bus
Lässt Gas geben
Fährt davon
Und die Welt dreht sich weiter

Unten am Deich ruht ein Anker

Mit den Brunnen ist das so eine Sache
Wenn ich über sie wache
Muss ich ich sagen und nicht du
In diesem Fall trifft es zu

Sonnet #42: Sonntagsglut

Doch Gottes Wille kann es ja nicht sein
Dass erst ins frische Grün ich mich muss flüchten
Das trübe, kühle Nass fällt mir kurz ein
Den brackig Tümpel mag ich doch mitnichten

Stecknadeln in meinem Kopf

Am Morgen schon sehne ich mich
Nach der Dusche am Abend
Und habe doch nur das Bad

SPAZIERENGEHEN

Spazierengehen war einst ein schönes Wort
Es bedeutete Ruhe und Friede
Die Natur zu durchstreifen an einem Sonntag

Wahlsonntag in Deutschland

Dämmriger Abend / Aufgehende Sonne
Ein neuer Tag / Wahlsonntag in Deutschland.

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!
