Voltaire (1694 – 1778)

Candide, ou l’Optimisme (1759)


The day before yesterday,

I felt very privileged.


In my hands, the book

by François-Marie Arouet

rested in my hands.


I read the words,

meaning and pronunciation

by French, not in French.


The book ends in a garden.

In 1759 there were, namely, no gardens;

a sharp light had to cultivate, it.


I can surely agree, that the biography

did not measure, mine.


I must say, I see another light.

Main title

Main title


When I was interested

in an author, I read his list.

After the first book, I wanted

to eat more of his rubbish.


There are languages, or writers

I had no time

to take a notice because of a lack

of authority or something, like that.


Actually, I admit, I was never interested

in the main title because it has nothing to say.

The second part of the story is more

wiser, clearer and definitely a reminder.


You know, when I write these words and letters

I have not a moment of silence.

It is all about you, when I read an intention

if words were written as they are meant.

Old structure


You say it was love

you write it was a poem

you may think I thought

it all so well, so well.


You thought I was a poet

you cherished you believed in.


I say it was not music

a song has not been seen.


I take some minutes

a day

to remember and not forget

I loved you all the way.

Ik vraag me

terdege af

of dit woord

geheel uit n-e-g-e-n

letters weet te bestaan.


Articuleren is niet mijn sterkste punt.

Bubblicious


It sticks

under your shoes;


that’s what

they said.


Shoes are polished

by my grandfather.

Purse


I would not give you a chance.


LinkedIn bastards outside the human race

give groupies away without members.

That’s a thing, not to give a shit, about an opinion.


Professionals of mental health

are not being called a criminal.

I do not think, so.


A doctor stays calm.

No matter what.

I bought


“Journey through Heartsongs”

by Matthew J.T. Stepanek.


You have to honour the World War

by a party for yourself

not even

by yourself …


It was an Ebook, or Ereader

for people without a soul, a heart

or illiteracy.


I missed some Russian farmers.


It is a good taste.

Labyrinth


In my youth, I had a board game

it was as thin as glass.


I never got bored, by it.


It was the cheapest, I ever touched.

Elevator

Inspiration : Roald Dahl – The Way Up to Heaven


I would not give

her the honour, Katy Perry, Rihanna, Beyoncé

Shakira or, or Miley Cyrus and Lady Giggly Google.


It is an honor of culture.


I saw one Twitter account, for at least, half an hour.

Well, that would be easy, I thought.

Dark cars and black sunglasses have no sight, at all.


So, we had more than a hundred accounts

they were running for music awards without a sound.


Sshh, no one knows anything about it.


We had three days, and then from September 2018

till February 2019 some months with different strategies

by people who do not make a difference, even though

they say, so.


You have to take care of each other

when they try to choke someone by a silky fire.


All of a sudden, there was one tackle.

December 14, 2018.


The Sun was rising because the evening is still

beautiful!

White silent hands

White silent hands


If I ever

made a wish for you

it was my wish

wished for you.


When clouds dazzled by

in a cloudy sky,

I saw nothing but sunshine

in a velvet blue sky.


I’ve not been made

by wishes, to come true

I know, but I wisely

understand, you are.


Silent white hands have been

touching earth and universe

as no one else could possibly, do.

White silent hands are there, are here, too!


It is all in my mind

the soul passed my body,

every morning, each night

I feel white light in my silent, white hands.

The Religion of The Blue Circle

Petra Hermans
Let's talk about life.
Let's talk about love.
Let's write about religion.
And keep quiet in silent silence.
