My Guardian Angels

My Bones Will Finally Get Their Cloak
Memories are walls
desecrated by graffiti of remembrance
well intentioned people
all around
and me
playing that „warm rabbit“ game
(take a guess who the rabbit is)
it feels like I'm one of those happy faces on Kerouac's road
I feel...

All kinds of bills are piling up,

making their threatening phone calls;
I would like to unplug the telephone wire

Cosmically Deep
COSMICALLY DEEP
Did the garden weep
With the ungrateful sweep
Of their covetous hands? Deep
Was the pit of their pickpocket. Sleep
Thought merciful and kind, allowed not a peep
From their rosy lips, where sweet cheeks steep.*
A father took enough...

Without You
Without you, everything I do
loses value every day.
Habitual things that mattered,
yesterday,
are hard to do, today.
Yoga in the morning,

Tightrope To Love - Or Asylum
Walking on a tightrope to you
Strung up between high stakes
Much higher than my fear of heights
But my courage needn’t go to war
When my heart knows the path is right
It’s a simple matter of trailing along
Surrounded...

My Baby Behind
Alert all night
So to not oversleep
As dawn ended night
My eyes wouldn’t keep
We managed attendance
A moment to spare
But, greeted the entrance
And shrills filled the air
Quickly consumed
By familiar terror
Could we exit the room?
Declaring an error
