Maple Tree

|
|||
|
Symbol of eternity
in a human mind
unable to expand
their narrow horizon
beyond trivial sorrow
I root
as many season pass
and I grow
I flourish
I stand
I’m rooted
Home of a thousands
tiny creatures
dead in a blink of a eye
busy and restless
living cycles of their own
I root
many, many cycles of seasons
and I grow
I flourish
I stand
I'm rooted

Mäander

|
Kurve, Schlinge, Usse, Inne.
schlängle, schlummere, hin-und her
gwunde ummi selber und umd Welt.
Immer uf der Reis
vorwärts aber nie i eire Linie.
Risse d Landschaft mit
Immr ufdr suechi nach Ribig.
Zerstöre chani - über di herrsche ou
«schöni Forme»–sägäsi.
streckä mi witr, zum ds gseh,
wosi sägä – sigi.
Wirbelnd und ruschend,
lo mi lo vrändre
lo mi lo vrändrä.
Bini zforsch u zgrob,
lo mi lo mäandere
lo mi lo mäandere.
Hami chopf verlore.
Mi vrstand vrsänkt
I tuusignä vo arme
Vrloufi langsam

Immoveable Thoughts
03:23
|
|||
|
an immoveable thought came to mind
sticky, gluey, pasty, like molasses, can’t get it out of
my head
we move, we run, we play, we act
the brain just won’t
it tells us to
it makes us
it motivates us to
it compels us
it leads us to
it causes us
but it cannot carry out any movements at all
the brain is one of the few body parts that cannot carry
out any movements at all
as it is devoid of muscle tissue
immoveable thoughts
stay in my mind
will not pass
they stick and grow
the brain is one of the few body parts that cannot carry
out any movements at all

Hallimasch

Spreading my roots
those tiny giants.
Expanding -
Dancing all over the place.

Selene
04:58
|
|||
|
I
was born as
Selene
Currently
Crescent-shaped.
Orbiting
and still
Daring
to
show
only one,
ever silvery,
side .

Fabrikinsel
05:14
|
|||
|
abandoned
used for just some years
nature’s taking back
this haunted island
forgotten
by humans
making way for more sensible creatures
stones and bricks
and tubes and pipes
and houses and theaters
and shops and markets
manmade
the Island left to rot
|

Drunken Sea
03:59
|
|||
|
the sea drinks at nightfall
birds get pretty scared
lights illuminate hazardous reefs
and we try to sleep
the sea gets drunk at sundown
awakens troublemakers
birds fall silent
In the middle of the night
we try to fall asleep
but sleep won’t come
the lights are staring at us
