I don’t know if I support you all
or that you support me
ether way
we are all where we are

Sometimes I get the urge
to turn it
and see what happens

The spiral stairs you take
up or down
is made of a thousand
individual pieces
and though you put it there
you haven’t made a single piece
of it

I have the feeling that between the light side
and the dark side
there is more light
but maybe I am wrong
I just don’t remember
that it was dark in between
and that is something you normally do remember

My whole house started tilting
but I didn’t roll out of bed
it wasn’t a dream

39 Origin of rights. – Rights can in the first instance be traced back to tradition, tradition to some agreement. At some time in the past men were mutually content with the consequences of the agreement they had come to, and at the same time too indolent formally to renew it; thus they lived on as though it were continually being renewed and, as forgetfulness spread its veil over its origin, gradually came to believe they were in possession of a sacred, immutable state of affairs upon which every generation had to continue to build. Tradition was now a compulsion, even when it no longer served the purpose for which the agreement had originally been concluded. – The weak have at all times found here their sure stronghold: they tend to regard that single act of agreement, that single act of grace, as valid eternally

I feel like I walk in nature
between these old
abandoned buildings
is the absence of people

but in a quiet moment
looking over it
you might still see some slight
changes
of a grayish white hue

Some signs say it all

I am thinking about a future
about problems not arrived
about my imagination
that has
maybe it’s all that’s old lying around
reminders of my memory
how to forget
and not
