POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
doing schizodelic and psycholyrical studies
preset
awakening within a trap
some distant times and times ahead
drifting towards a growing gap
estranged from knowing words that led
me through my inner cosmic dance
to make me feel I could forget
what's catching up with well felt chance
within a mystic sense instead

destruction
(a projective poem, partly inspired by “green frontier”)
the eyes of a crowned dull mask
change into the ears of an angry rat
the foreign that brings a colorful threat
a wasteful death to replace
myths and idols – to wipe out their trace
and from that ears, like two greedy snakes
it blindly starves for the forbidden fruit
that patiently ambivalent drug
a potentially destructive and estranging plague
a strangely looped trap – partly fake
shining redly from the tree
the blind greed is deaf enough to see
to find...

saved by the cruel wisdom of intuition
held by praying wings of an owl
with a heart of broken infinities
and eyes of blue that stole
the happy ending from the tragedies
that rule the innermost of fears
that ugly beast from deep and long ago
linked to a different sphere
wearing an ancient mask to hide to show
the lasting heritage of what you know
ready to change and ready to grow
out of its slowly fading pre-echo
into a strangely wide and open glow
that becomes your new tomorrow
with a heart of broken infinities
and eyes of blue that stole
the happy ending from the tragedies
that rule the innermost of fears
that ugly beast from deep and long ago
linked to a different sphere
wearing an ancient mask to hide to show
the lasting heritage of what you know
ready to change and ready to grow
out of its slowly fading pre-echo
into a strangely wide and open glow
that becomes your new tomorrow

meaning
overwhelmed by question marks
feeling insecure but strangely saved
within a deeper reliable dark
feeding my trust to make me brave
though I'm a coward filled with fears
I can't explain that messed up state
much too close to painful tears
but knowing of our happy fate
confusing life - but what is real
the contradictions make me mad
splitting up the ways I feel
but deep inside I'm still relaxed
knowing we will stay together
sailing through the changing weather

well
(watch yourself – it's not alone what is or seems to be on your mind but it's your mind watching itself and what is on itself while guessing the world or its self)
I find myself in a foreign place – nebulous
a realm where symmetry rules my thoughts
by mocking pareidolically
I see patterns but I search for meaning
finding only projections of my self
my past and coming days to happen
right before my eyes but staying unrecognized
profoundly misunderstood
speaking mysteriously in tongues of any unknown left in-between
there is no...

poetic signs
I don't know the pictures
but the images know me
strange symbols of some big doors
leading to new realities
by working as a living screen
for some projective tendencies
that show connections left unseen
outside the mental way to see
somehow I make the pictures
that also preshape my way
through new aspects that got figured
out by dreams of coming days
as metaphors of stories told
long ago to happen soon
my self's sucked in just to unfold
within a meaningful cocoon

self-experience of change
(like a serpent at my temple)
I had a strange experience
that caused an urgent will to write
about that days to make some sense
out of confusing nights
I saw myself reflecting me
and discovered something new
got curious at first to see:
a vein at my temple cued
for frightening dangers for my health
scaring me who faced his fears
two days to leave my former self
because a new one had appeared
---

native mindsets
exploring vivid inner worlds
in one space of different times
suggesting an experience
by projecting outer words
that images had led to rhymes
prestructured by a presensed chance
overwhelming with details
as natural fragments gave birth
to well confused traces of self
as symbols of a life that fail
to hide connections with my earth
and sky, my heavens and hells
and their paralleled course
from the same imaginative source

totem
straying through some kind of garden
remembering the path I came
until I meet a hybrid warden
revealing new parts of some same
I was found by a connection
of unknown hidden tendencies
that made up a pure selection
by guiding me through what agrees
with a meaningful distraction
within realms a closed eye sees
like a wood of felt-out trees
of a sense hard to discover
by trying guessing in old ways
I was changed - began to hover
above the roots of ancient days
when the winds were getting rougher...

Serpendipity – Glee of Drive
a false reflection of a serpent's head
reveals a symmetric symbol that gives
access to an archetypical sphere to get
a human mind to where mythic chaos lives
beyond self-referringly prestructured sense
creating a strange contextual mess
that carries meaning that's blind within chance
suspiciously hiding traces more and less
of a rhyming fate to guess
its dark wild plans
motifs and ifs
to rewrite the unread

Life: an essay on psychosmology
a meaning rose – too complex to hold
carried by dynamic structures which
chose oddly folded ways to unfold
reflecting the new out of the old
repeatedly transformed to a rich
psyche pulsing into a cosmic hitch
presolved within a dark and cold
universal glitch
just to grow on out of clay

Life: sometimes winning when we stop to fight
strange delusions, strange delight
sometimes winning when we stop to fight
changed conditions, truth revealed
getting answers to feel getting healed
coming closer, feeling sense
strange creation of new fluid plans
strange perfection leads ahead
reassembled perfect spread
overcoming my defense
giving in to chanced coincidence
liberation of letting go
what comes back is felt to know
what comes back is sure to know
clear confusion, glowing sight
growing within a strange night ...
