Down at the bottom it can be all dark grey
but be assured
at the top
the greyness is lighter

Down at the bottom it can be all dark grey

It is hard to look inside a dark room
for all involved
inside your eyes get used
but what do you see
outside your eyes are used
to see what you know

My balcony
I don’t have one
but I often stand on one
looking at the sea
the one I don’t see
but for the distance
I do remember
I love the distance
where my thoughts disappear
and I don’t have to
I can’t
catch them

I was looking at the street
to see if I already had
been going here
not realizing
the surround now
and probably then
as the reason for why
I was lost

I saw myself today
in the role I play
in the movie I show
to the world
but I was the only one
watching

I saw a light
caught in a cage
strings attached
is what I understood
for the reason
why

What is colorful in you
makes you interesting
but where do I go
to get closer
the colors
or what’s behind
one of the doors

We all live in the same house
with doors to go through
windows to look
and our own mess to live in
or not
?

Even down here
I get dizzy
looking up
from the hight

Do I tell you
I sometimes wonder
what is wrong with what you see
the situation
you are aware
can be explained
but also
in different ways
and there is no perspective
or a place for opinion
the truth is there
in a real world
and not between us

I see them sometimes while I walk through the city
they give me an urge to climb
a fear of falling
and the strange feeling
of the moment just before I hit
the ground
I am happy that I am not aloud
near them

I recognize that shape from the past
it looks like stairs going up
but I am fooled before
and wonder if I ever
should even go there
The former Dutch prime minister is now the boss of NATO. He is warning everyone that we have to prepare for the next war. He is doing that because the warmongers in Washington told him to. Russia is doing the same, and China has joined the party too. I am pretty sure that most people don’t want war, especially not the one these so-called world leaders wish for, because the next war will probably cost half a billion people their lives. We, as outsiders, can do very little because a couple of thousand people, at most, decide our destiny. In the USA, there is a democracy, Russia has a strong leader and a very weak democracy, and China is a dictatorship. It does not really matter what kind of government there is; in the end, a handful of people always decide the destiny of the rest. It is frustrating, and it can make you angry. As an Anarchist, I just hope that in the distant future, we all live in small communities, so small that even if one produces a little dictator, he or she could do little harm to the communities around him let alone the world.
Governments are hiding places for people who wanna play Risk with real people; we are and always will be children, only our toys change. I never took any active part in our so-called democracy and hope no one does in the future.

My feet know how to walk the stairs
up and down
when it is light
or in the darkness
only when I think about it
I will stumble
I also know how to live
going up or down
when in the light
or darkness
only when I think about it
I will stumble

I looked up
between all the buildings
in a corner
I saw your windows reflection
colored by what reflected it
I thought about going up
but I lost sight of it
when I moved on

I am not too far away
from where I walk
but I don’t really see
where I go
I am listening to myself again
whining about the same
spending all this time with me
with habits I don’t like
that fit me so well
so strange
I walk on
knowing that my feet will land
without knowing

We often see the outside
of what is the same
we are evolved to be scared
of the unfamiliar
a difference triggers
your upbringing reacts
