worte - oder meine einstellung zu den worten die ich schreibe







worte

ich hetze den worten nicht hinterher

sie kommen meist ganz von allein

ich brauch mich auch nicht an sie zu erinnern

weil da doch freier platz sein muss

fuer das naechste gedicht

was wie ein vogel hinabgleitet

von uns'rem firmament

 ich heisse alle willkommen

und schreib sie dann nieder

jedes mal und immer wieder...

navalny


where can i put my sorrow?
where can i store my pain?
what must i do with my anger,
and with the rage that burns?

what could i do in a world
full of people, without any love?
but now, my soul has been lifted,
no longer do i live in the dark,
now i am high above.

so, do not fret, and do not cry,
nor grieve too much, my friends
just remember us, and me, with a smile,
and with that passion in your hearts!

brainwashed













when blindness falls over men's minds
they mistake darkness for light
and shiny lies for truth
they walk the edge along the abyss
believing that they are, indeed,
on safe ground

Humor in the Face of Madness









( a meme i made for facebook.)

Some words I'd like to share, regarding the above pictured meme ✌ :
"You see, I'm broke, and have no prospects (at least not the kind y'all are thinking of right now, lol), seeing as turning into a little old lady, against my will, takes up much of my time.
I sure could use your help, though. We all could! ☮️
AND FOR THOSE WATCHING
(or those listening when they shouldn't be):
I AM JUST JOKING AROUND HERE! 😆
Sorry, but the general political and judicial climate is responsible, apart from those golden sneakers and, the bobble-head ads...
I mean, how much more of that are we supposed to put up with, before we lose our minds altogether, leaving us behind with bobbling heads and lolling tongues!? 😵
And now, let's go to Hollywood and make a deal.
So that, tomorrow, or the next day, we can start on the script about how the Ninja Warrior Women came to America, helped us with our hard to solve problems, saved our country, the world, the universe, and all the other stuff, purely on a pro-bono basis!
At the end, there oughta be a huge wedding, with some of the players from the Kansas City Chiefs... (NO, not Kelce, duh!).
Don't laugh, it's the American way, where a buck can be made... go all in....
Phew! Good nite 'n good luck to us, who appreciate democracy, while we still have it!!
