giant masses, jammed


I circle around the red
dot of futility, center
of intricacy
moth, lantern
volatile, fickle
arrowhead
indoctrinating the board
under my bed

what are we here for
if the aim is not to win
water to currencies
rivers to dams
harvesting gravities
giant masses, jammed
i dance
to the sound of debris
falling into sand
rising tunes
preying on my nights
chewing on my eyes
gnawing on my skin

towers inside dreams
crumble from within

still i climb to be closer
to be sky
to be moment
when everything i torment
finally gives in

in my pocket


today i aimed for a higher purpose
casting all books aside
a letter fell to the ground

its words
without weight

only the blue
and how it had been absorbed

crevices and changed seasons
in my pocket
heavy
yet feeling light

ins rot


wollte mich ins rot
des waldes an der zeder 
versteckt lauschte ich
auf schritte im gebüsch saß 
ein einsamer mann 

sein blick lugte 
in mein gläsernes 
auge zerteilte
den vorhang und fiel 
hinter die bühne zerbrach
auf der anderen seite 
eilten jogger ins laub
