poem

Day 1608, fell.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1608.jpg

A dividing wall

lay flat

on a corrugated

blood soaked

metal floor

~

there are no people here

they are long gone

mending their wounds

~

the wall fell

but who

will raise it again

Day 1607, water hose.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1607.jpg

We’ll keep them

hanging around

even though

they are cut up

in so many pieces

that they are

useless

~

you can no longer

water your soil

with them

~

my dear old

arguments

Day 1606, public transport.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1606.jpg

We should all

be waiting

for the bus

~

and take the time

to enjoy

the ride

alone

and together

~

because you may

never reach

your destination

Day 1605, home.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1605.jpg

A new home

for the day’s

that are still

~

hiding

in the room

with no roof

~

where I look

trough a new window

Day 1604, up or down.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1604.jpg

I cannot tell

if what is going in

is going up

or down

~

I know

the answers

are coming out

often

undigested

Day 1603, patterns.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1603.jpg

Some patterns

I think

are making me

~

dizzy

~

when I look at

them

Day 1602, grass.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1602.jpg

Maybe

the colors are drained

from the world you see

into the abyss

you feel

inside

~

but

a grey field of grass

still feels

green

when you think of it

Day 1601, dragged.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1601.jpg

I don’t want

to give you cover

no longer

against the rain

~

but I am still

leaving

dragged down

by the forces

that kept me

with you

Day 1600, illuminate.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1600.jpg

The otherworldly

shines

above all

in the shadows

of time

~

but it doesn’t

illuminate

Day 1599, stares.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1599.jpg

I stare at the lever

it stares back

~

I want to grasp

and turn

it

~

but I like

the limbo

Day 1598, broken.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1598.jpg

The broken rope

haunts me

~

your failure

my guilt

~

my fear

your reality

~

I will try

to hide the rope

Day 1597, urge.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1597.jpg

The windows

I look through

al look

at the same

~

in the one window

I can see it all

a bit more

from the right

~

in the other

from the left

~

and from the window

in the middle

it all comes straight

towards me

and then I feel

an urge

Day 1596, dangerous.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1596.jpg

They drilled it

in to me

to brace me

for the coming

storms

~

I am now

bound

to mother earth

~

but

I will never move again

and will stand here

as so many others

to carry

the current

predicament

Day 1595, in the middle.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1595.jpg

I stand

in the middle

of all of this

~

because

I think

thrust

from all sides

puts me here

Day 1594, flickering.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1594.jpg

Its just

the shadows and light

that play

with my mind

~

there is a solid floor

I know that

~

but still

~

I stand

Day 1593, still live.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Day 1593.jpg

It just stood still

for a second

~

and I wondered

what is going on here

~

and then

it moved again
