Elegantly wasted

a by-product of infatuation

teary eyes

mix in well

with the early morning mist

 

walk, walk faster

there's a demon

on your back

it's called ... fear

fear of … what

exactly

 

look

there’s a hedge

who’s behind it

do you know?

 

maybe

it’s a man

with pink socks

or is it just a

shiver

down your spine

 

do you have…

scream

he’s sorry

really

 

all he wanted

really really

was a little warmth

 

what’s a little

sacrifice

in the larger scheme

of an ever expanding

universe

 

 

Fantasy

 

in peaceful woods nature's hiding behind nebula
are they the remains of the dead
the only reminder of their existence
if you could talk to them, what would you say ?
if you knew there is no joy, but no sadness either
would the belief still be worth the bother
And one day I ran into Oberon
asked him where did the elves go
they left our memory and took the fairytales
right around the time the brain era started
fantasy was banned, who can trust a fool
the higher the number the poorer life
drama is the dreamer's reward
when the scared charged him with heresy
but there's no treasure hunters left...

 

 

 

Nacht Und Nebel   ( Night and Fog )

 

 

silence
deadly silence
one road ahead

 

ashes to ashes
dust to dust
weightless on the wind

 

trenches and
mass graves
brotherly love

 

the night veils
it's the time
where ghosts spook

 

dark matter
invisible for
the primary sense

 

kindly covered
with a veil of
the purest white fog

 

We simply didn't know ?
