"There is truly nothing good about war. Although we would have never met. War functions as some kind of glitch in our reality, something that should have never happened. At the end, there is something we can make of it; we are now forever familiar with the voices of each other and the sounds of an unfamiliar country."

txt

my daughter closed the txt file with my latest writing. after seeing the dialogue pop up, she closes without saving. the whole cache was deleted with it. i want to bury myself in a hole. 

and i remember the words that someone once said, “if you can not remember what you even wrote, it was not worth it anyway”.

One year off tumblr and everything is the same. It is like a time capsule of regretted love and very beautiful packaged agony.

masculine

accomplice,

a dictionary asleep,

the noses
never meet bitter almond pralines
all
while a cat steps over the paperweight
epithetical postcards so heavy
now
a ship carries them into yawning tides

and on someday
i wear a skirt
that takes me seen
along female horizons.

hunger he

do not look in castles
worn banister
additional installment
the made in china curtain
and the smell: oak of aulic

slowly the dog is nodding  
where no one will find him bound
to a mirror polished chestnut
rolls and resounds in a grounds suture
prospect for foliage elapses
IN between ready sleek branches

the fuck!the - hungry the hunger is
knitting mesopotamian’s fall.

————–


hunger der

schau nicht im schloß nach
abgenutztem treppengeländer
nachträglich installiert
der made in china gardine
und dem geruch: eiche vom hof,

langsam döst der hund bis dahin
wo ihn keiner mehr angebunden vorfindet
zum spiegel polierte kastanie
rollt und hallt in einer bodennaht
ausschau nach laub vergeht
[IN]zwischen glatten ästen –

the fuck!the- hunger der hunger ist
mesopotame untergänge stricken.
