My Shadow Knows Me Better Than I

Struggling to fit in
Never too thin
Never too fat
Wait a moment

f l o a t i n g

there is space
and there is time

© Dominik Alexander / 2024

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

Ready To Race

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

This Is Where We Belong

We’re travelling this space for a while. All is dust and we mostly consist of water. We’re still playing with fire while hardly breathing.

Tattoo

this is my skin
I don’t want to have pictures on my body
I want to become a piece of art
being a walking painting

drifting surrogate

here is darkness liquid dreams
nothing there is real, it seems
you touch a velvet form
but eyes see one purple coloured storm

© Dominik Alexander / 2023

for a better chance to exist

assembling the glorious part of the past
when the fences were low
or barely existent
darker senses moving slow

World From Atop

Being out there
This wilderness
So pure
Just blue here

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!
