Boxed in

Boxed in

The world is full of boxed in people
constipated in their four wheel containers
in endless bumper to bumper lanes

rubbing shoulders with underground strangers
rich and fame like an Instagram post
cardboard poor as a news flash in the gutter  

hollow eyes rushing to lock themselves in
afraid to be a wrapped give away
by a white bearded man on boxing day

Keep your box open and let life in, ha de Gött!

Hymn

Hymn

Land of Feel-Sorry-for-Yourself

a place to put you down

beat your ego up

Low Self Esteem for president

besieged by, enemy of you

never ending civil war

army fight call “no use”

stay down for every count

dare not to seek, citizenship

It all starts with the man in the mirror, ha de Gött!

The obliviousness book

The obliviousness book

Book full of forgotten
things un-remembered
issue release daily
thick as the book of what-if's
pocket size in constant use 
some miss-use now and then
wear it on my shoulders
every chapter, dare a read
a highly dangerous deed
largest book in the library
that is my brain
the book of oblivion

My memory is good but short, ha de Gött!

The Library

The Library

some in frequent use
pages darkened by hungry fingers
'who done it'
tickling the darkest inside us

some covered by dust
only yellow by age
'who wants to know'
fuelling the creative light

during long dark nights
dark prose in the poetry corner
and whiskey stinking PI's
comparing their scars 

silent with millions of words
organised in rows and shelfs
collective minds
peaks and abysses of humanity

Growing up in a broken home in the suburbs, the library was always a safe haven. Still today I get calm entering a library or a book store.

Take care of the libraries, Ha de Gött!

Still Evening

Still Evening

I just love this time of year when summer is fading and autumn is knocking on the door. It’s like nature is resting from the hectic summer before starting to prepare for the cold winter.

Still there is light and warmth left before the first bite of frost. Birds fly off to the south in their perfect formations. The air becomes clear and fresh. Silence and stillness.

A little slideshow from my YouTube channel, as always with original music from my son.

Just give yourself a break, ha de Gött!

Cycle of horror

Cycle of horror

Now once again I find myself

in this terrible predicament

a weight of the world

on my sloping shoulders

pulse banging hard and fast

shivering breath and pearls of sweat

three times of every year

this cycle of horrific fear

one of the those repeating event

I need to find my wife a present

One down, two to go. Ha de Gött!
