Wahlkampf – Scriptorium '77

Sonnet #81: Anstand

Geboten kann man folgen oder nicht
Das religiöse Wunder dieser Tage
Der Anstand ist doch lange außer Sicht
Wer heut’ die Macht missbraucht, steht außer Frage

Die Vereinigten Staaten der Plutokraten

Man kann sich natürlich hinter Platitüden verstecken
Kann versuchen wollen, nirgendwo anzuecken
Kann Versprechungen machen, die nicht zu halten sind

On a Day Like This

The Sun wakes up and takes a flight
She’s sending us the daily light
The daily news create my morning
Most baffle me and make me yawning

Es begann als Virus
Und lässt uns
Jetzt
Als zäher Kaugummi unter einem Schuh kleben

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!
