We all need some company 

even if it doesn’t move

or is dead

if you are 3 mm tall

like ours

I assume

I stare at you

I see your eyes

But I don’t know if you see me

Or just what you want to see

It is pretty gripping what I have read

all these years ago

now it is slowly getting into focus

Day 2261, lightweight.

I may tread on you

but you won’t feel a thing

but if you suddenly

look into my eyes

you will

Day 2259, my shadow.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Today I saw myself

in the shadow that looks like me

It is strange

that the stranger is in me

and that I don’t know myself

like I know you

Day 2258, think.

Day's pictures, Poetry, Video

There are colorful people

that suck you in

to their darkness

the part of you

that can

think for instance

Day 2256,

Day's pictures, Poetry

The top floor of the house I live

is almost empty

besides some old memories in boxes

Day 2255, don’t.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Please don’t come to my door

please do not press the door bell

please don’t come in when I open the door

please leave as soon as possible

please stay only for one night

please do not move in your things

please don’t say yes

please

~

don’t you see I have no life

2254, past.

Day's pictures, Poetry

A view into the distance

I imagine the calm water that I see

like that forever

~

I slow down some more

still

I cannot not stop on this road

I hope

after the next bend

or crossroad

I will find some time

to remember

what past me by

just now

Day 2253, standing.

imagining what I could paint

Day 2252, mine.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Sometimes I know what I see

and you don’t

Day 2251, curious.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Do you realize

we are the only animals

with an inside

from where we look curious

to an outside
