Sweat is the only thing I can think of
Sweat is the only thing my body explains
When it drains

Sonnet #47: Confusion

We want the cooler air in hottest places
Because the breathing trouble torture us
When hardest raindrops meet the softer faces
The weather may behave like treasonous

White Mind Behind Fences

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

Song Of the Lost Planet

The pastel-coloured sunset dragged me outside
Made me putting my feet on the balcony
To sit on the warm granite

Halfway to Siberia

suddenly there was Summer
and it won’t go away anymore
it’s weather outside
but I’d like to stay in

Smoking Hot Sunday

Left my body in the shadow
Still there is the mirrored meadow
Burning leaves upon my skin

Apologize

The evening is cold
Even more in Summer
When people are everywhere

Separated By Blue

What do you think
When you see this colour
Blue
Well I think

Seven Haiku: January 2021, part III

Denn es wird kälter
Das Knirschen des Schnees lauter
Fahrrad im Keller.

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!
