Standing motionless
Exhibited in a tattered and worn out leather jacket Sullen and shameless eyeing a middle aged blonde Her curls dangle precisely on her face The smell of fast food strangles the scene A torn page from a newspaper floats on the pavement Young youth clad in hoodies roaming unafraid A pit ball terrier with gold [...]
A afternoon at the pool
I dip my feet into the lukewarm water Then plunge into the pool confidently Children and adults are splashing At the other end of the pool I am standing engrossed in the slow end What is going to surprise me this week? A couple are swimming only half of the length The life guard is [...]
Be carried by a dream
I float in a dream along the Akhtuba distributary The reflection of the dinghy projected into the water The sun looming behind the clouds burning my skin A swooping great cormorants almost swipes my head I feel the languid water encompassing me Resembling an escape from a prison No restraint to drift wherever I want [...]

An blissful moment
My mind is on the way you speak to me Your voice so sugary and smooth like honey The words you whisper so thoughtfully They make me spin in the open young morning air I hold you close in my boundary Grasp your warmhearted fingers I smell your intoxicated incense We both stoop gently downward [...]
To Berlin
To Berlin where I was The passport control where I landed The kind guy that showed us where to buy the tickets The salesman who did not like my screwed up 20 Euro note The bus driver that took us to the train station The drunken girl on the train who tried to talk to [...]
My morning cognition
