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

I enjoyed your contribution to the vinyl pop up thing. I saw the blogs too late this week to get involved!
