A shaft of sunlight
splits our dreams
and the spell evaporates,
our fate is sealed,
our goose is cooked!
Morning-mouthed,
bedraggled, the reality of day
makes for a rude awakening,
as reluctantly we say
'auf wiedersehen.'

wiedersehen, cute love,
Form: Verse
Our love had ran rampant, stretched out thin,
Like the neck of an old green absinthe bottle.
She was here, and I there. She said this, and I said that.
Oh! Oh, how she teased. One day, she’d be near,
But not near enough. This kind of game makes a
Man lose his mind, like a child loses their
Coloured pencils in the bottoms of their backpacks.
I sat down in a coffee shop one morning, while
The dew was still on the grass, and I waited for
A short while. She was scheduled to make
An appearance, and we were to end this
Bizarre charade - this hide and seek game.
Not a chance, I thought after a while.
I strolled out, and down the lane,
Snaking my way to the bridge.
I looked out over the Thames,
Sighed, and shrugged my shoulders.
"Auf wiedersehen", I whispered,
Turning on my heels to depart.
There’d be plenty of coffee shops,
And plenty of girls
To wait in them for.

A shaft of sunlight
cleaves their reveries
and the spell evaporates,
their fate is sealed,
their goose is cooked!
Morning-mouthed,
bedraggled, the reality of day
makes for a rude awakening
as reluctantly they say
'auf wiedersehen.'

Rome.Open city.
Unreal with paling light,
singular with stone and ochre.
Gods dyed with dust,
the unquiet dead corded
with white marble.
Heaven`s steps so cruel with belief.
My hotel.Forster. Only connect.
Words cool and dry,
the idea of a lost kingdom.
Far from the noise of this,
in shade,under pines.

lie in bed
static on the tv
dream of your face there
lying next to me
dream you're in my arms tonight
in my sleep i do sigh
you had moved on
and there was nothing i could have said
so i waved bye to you
auf wiedersehen
dream of you in my arms tonight
in my sleep i do cry

Heidenrod 8 (Zorn) Germany
1984
Nach vielen, langen Jahren,
sah ich die Heimat wieder.
Es scheint noch immer
wie ein wunderschöner Traum.
Die Erinnerung wird weiter leben,
in Zeit und Weltenraum.
Seltsam, wie das Dörfchen
sich verändert
und ich alles anders fand.
Herzinniglich gedenke ich der
Jugendfreunde und der Zeiten,
als gleiches Schicksal uns verband.
Wie waren unsere Herzen aufgeschlossen
und echt die Freude
und das Wiedersehen.
Die Zeit, sie eilte viel zu schnell.
Doch der Augenblick
wird nie vergehen.
Die Tage die noch bleiben,
liegen in Gottes Hand.
Ein Stückchen Himmel nahm ich mit,
zum großen, fremden Land.
Wohin die letzte Reise
uns auch führen mag,
unsterblich ist ein wunderschöner T
