PEOPLE PRESSURE

kitsch
               crowded
               streets
fast
flowing
               feathers
               and
pointed
feet
              jagged

              distinctive
 
              unique

pressure

Gary Radice Date: 7/6/2025 10:35:00 AM Any poem related to Berlin and the artist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner is always a winner for me. Such atmosphere. I LOVE Berlin and its galleries. As an aside German author Karl Scheffler described Berlin as “a city condemned forever to becoming and never to being”. I just love that :). Cheers - Gary Login to Reply
