Relationships like books
Categories The Arts
Commentary “The Closing”:
I had the idea that relationships could be represented like a book, where the pages can be turned.
So I wrote this poem about a relationship.
It is a bit dark.

Being ignored
Categories The Arts
Being in a relationship is not always chocolates and roses.
I wrote a poem about when the partner doesn’t want to speak with you and ignores you.
How do you feel today
Categories The Arts
I often get asked “How do you feel” as part of our daily chat with friends. I normally say “Okay” or “Good”, without having to delve into my emotional household.
If somebody really wants to know, like a partner, I find it difficult to answer the question on the spur of the moment. I am more of a thinker and I don’t have fast access to my feelings like some people - they seem to be at a different level of consciousness. I need some kind of special key to get there, and when I’m there I need ages to unravel them, take them apart and describe them. Funny thing is, I’m faster at decoding other people than myself.
Commentary to Run To Keep Running
Categories The Arts
Every now and again, a story pops up in the newspaper about kids being sexually mistreated.
What the newspapers do not talk about is that a fragile person’s personality has been destroyed. That person cannot live a normal life like the majority of us any more, for the rest of their life.
Whispery thoughts of time
Categories The Arts
Sometimes the ideas just flow when I am working on product development or working on the architecture of a new technical system. Over the last year I sometimes wonder if “I” am being creative or I am just being a channel for the ideas which are “just hanging around” in the universe ready to be picked up.
German piece Das Korn
Categories The Arts
I had this idea of love being something organic like a plant that can grow from a corn.
The piece is in German and is called “Das Korn Der Liebe” or in English “The Corn Of Love”
Commentary to One
Categories The Arts
I have always marvelled at that precious period of time after one has given up his body and mind to the unleashed sexual energies. For me it had something magical, divine, peaceful…
I dare say everyone experiences it differently.
Why do I write?
Categories The Arts
When I was 20, I had the urgent need to self-publish a small collection of poems. There was no monetary, or pressure from anybody - it just came from somewhere.
So I spent several days writing poems.
A quiet moon lit night

Commentary to “MoonNight”: It was a moonlit February night and very quiet - serene. I wanted to capture the atmosphere and wrote this piece “MoonNight”, 2011-02-13 23:2 1
Associations with a place
Categories The Arts
I’ve written a short poem called “Anchored”.
Basically its about having a bad experience and its association with a place.
Some people, who have had a bad experience like a broken relationship or who have been cheated, never want to go back to the same place or even the city. Just hearing the name brings back the bad memories.
