The end of an era has come and gone  
Right before our eyes;
With the man who first stepped on the moon 
Having said his last goodbyes.
While tens of thousands of engineers, 
Scientists and lovers of space
Helped lift him up and get him there,
No one...

Our great Balboa has left the hillock bare
And two waters converge in evening mist
Where from our vision he made us stare
As the divided dimensions rose and kiss

So sleep great Balboa, toll, toll your knell.

 who died on 25.08.2012)

fish eye lenses
pretenses 
all the worlds a stage
we are merely pretenders

The great man is dead
And he may find in this voyage
So many Columbus that left us blind
Without knowledge
Of earth indisputable speck
Steering the shipwreck
With malfunctioned cameras of dream.

The great man is dead
What this this new situation for him
Who made the first step
Through the wilderness of galaxies
On...

The coal and blackened hands.
Zero was the cardinal sin.
After the lunar walk, 
you flinch back in horror.

A gaint leap has ended 
in a coal tar pit. Are you 
sure we have landed 
at a right spot ?

Extraterrestrial. An immune 
disorder. Your autism 
was evolving into...

There once was an old hamster named Neil
Who, when he ate too large of a meal
Would rise from the table

But then he’d fall asleep at the wheel...

Holly was the captain of TeamGB, 
In 2016 at the European Champs, 
In Grosseto in the centre of Italy, 
Where she did rock with amps. 

She collected a bronze medal,
To forward the team a bit more, 
She suffers from Dwarfism’s dial, 
And used to ride...

We begin at the beginning: a clove of garlic, too hard-headed
for its own good, combined with two large onions, their first denuding 
revealing fallow gold: the second layer, a pale green puberty,
then, the heartless blade of the knife slices into the virginal white 
purity of...

out there in our world
there are brilliant individuals
whose minds are incredible,
awesome & inspiring,
bearing thoughts, ideas &
theories, which many of us
wouldn’t be able to fathom
if the thinker her/himself 
sat down at our breakfast table
& spoon fed it to us
like we were good little Gerber 
babies.

there are...

I hear your voice, and I see your
Loving face everytime

You helped me know 
Who "I am, 'I cried.'"...
