He crossed the seas with dreams in his hands a boy from home trying to understand how to grow, how to belong, how to be right when everything feels wrong. On the streets of Germany he welcomed every stare Every words whispered is a scare "Schau dir den ‚Neger‘ an, wie arm und wild er sein kann." In classrooms, he knew his stuff books,...

Bavarian Barista At that first taste, my initial savoring sip, smoky, rich, strong, unlike any anywhere, anytime I had ever had and I had had my share, but this German Kaffee mit zucker und kreme, served hot as her smile suggests a second cup for the rest of my life. ...

Our Christmas traditions ... They came across the sea, From the old, old towns In the heart of Germany Sugar and spice - filled Were the gingerbread men, Cut by hand ... carefully As was the tradition then A wooden nutcracker guards In a frosted windowpane, To keep away evil spirits ... Out wandering down your lane And, the advent calendar Which hung on the...

this non conformist city breathes a calm but edgy air through gaps in the graffiti and the street art everywhere its face is sometimes brutal but its heart and soul seem not and it walks a sexy diverse walk that’s cold yet somehow hot (but I know I’m getting older when those fun thoughts in my head reject the swinging KitKatClub for KitKat bars instead) and...

While Italian girls were looking at shoes, And German women were reading the news, And checking to find some good movie reruns, The Russian women were grabbing their guns. And while Germany was losing its gains, Rosie the Riveter was turning out planes. While Hitler was saying "You've got to be White", The Tuskegee Airmen were conducting a flight And when...

They were young starry-eyed, yet too soon so many had to die. Brave to a fault with wanderlust of youth, no challenge spurned however seemingly uncouth. In azure blue skies with only clouds as friends, they sought their prey through war's myopic lens. No quarter given and none spared by their foes, incandescent bullets superseding schoolyard blows. Skill and...

A clean way to big tears dry Is it make a fresh bold try: Not in fury's red pan fry . Nor wear a smile dully wry . You may into stars' lives pry : Those who'd made it planting rye . Yet, this could make a bloke cry Or wish one did not it try . Your mood should...

Dreadful masters of deceit at its creation Censorship and fear, hallmarks, it’s inception. You think, ah, that’s just ancient history? As the news marches you happily into misery! Race-baiting, how you love demonstrations! Forgetting the lessons, the recriminations. Skin color does not make you superior! Just a slick word that justifies terror? Into the night, you run, text and curse? Making this planet,...

England And Germany Twin sides of the same coin Light and dark the game's the same Two soldiers doing the same job Both would be mortal enemies Yet their stories are the same On a certain type of mission Getting the same result Like it's a scripted storyline The hit man and the cop Telling exactly the same story Each eradicating the rapist Not a tale I...
