I would give it back to him.

I never borrowed it, all, from him anyway.

I will give it back

because my hands are not empty, no more.

A full house has lost its glow,

it is awful to say, but when you win the game

a person is just the same.

You don’t know

when you cycle

you whisper in my eyes.

You do not know

when you talk

you talked with a license in a dream.

You’ll never know

what you ever wanted

because someone tells you, not to.

I know that there is one colour

in my eyes, it is the colour

of white and rose rainbows.

It was a Friday, afternoon.

She needed another teacher.

I had a special cahier

and as soon as possible

I took it

out my leather bag, from my sister.

The pen had no ink, no more.

It was history of histories.

I liked it, more than ever.

In the desert, there was such a wizard

but it was not a wizard.

She is a master.

She has a stick, a wooden and steel stick,

she touched the heaven and after that, reaches

out to planet earth.

Photograph I : My Crystal Ball watches the houses in the world

Outside a window

Inside out

there is a light

a light of love

that will have a soft, little shadow

on your wall.

Outside of my window

a room reflected

the rainbows of a Crystal Ball,

in night, midnight

she came, to wonder.

I don’t think

you ever, will ever

understand what it was like

to receive the sight of my world!

It was an idea,

when I was young,

I played in the fields,

it was my gift

to change the world

into your universe.

A world was not worried

but she knows,

she was not there;

she is.

Masterpiece

A piece of art

does not need

an artist.

Art is

art when the colour

is dry and wet.

History has been taken care

of, art.

It is a farmer.

It is the feeling

in my hands,

in the morning.

Risen

The floor has risen.

It looks over the world.

She does not bother,

she does not care.

Woman of the world,

in the world

watches

the beat of every watch.

It has one marque.

Do not call it a name, a life

or a lifetime.

She, who cares more

than her own existence,

does not live, anymore.

Family flair

We did it again!

He and I,

we made it.

What’s a man

when the world

turns faster

he could imagine?

I know

the writer is her own story

because books are letters,

not to be found

or known.

You have a direction

I lost it

when I doubled,

all the roads.

Green trees

have leaves that reach to the dream

of a Hippopotamus amphibius.

An absence of nouse and ears

makes it better,

when the peacock has become a golden bird.

Revelation

The House was clean,

after a long time

after such a long time.

I did not look

in a sky;

I looked at

my furniture.

The candles stand there, for ages,

decades, years, minutes.

I put back my right hand, from my body.

I was still breathing.

A sky opened a song

of more than a hundred million birds.

They would be free!

I am able, to wear the success.

253 Anno Domini

I thought, you forgot

how to write your name

with dirty clothes.

The streets are no good

for angels without wings.

History teaches students

who are interested in something, more.

Red lights are no red lights

with praise and pleasure of plastic roses.

But hey, who cares?

A flight on November 9 will never reach goal, any way.

The Red Cross uses diamonds as if jewels are a broken glass.

Fondue

Speedy Gonzalez did not come Home.

It was decided.

Beautiful strings and suites

have taken, the place, as it seemed.

I understand wisely, a man has a beard.

It is hard, nowadays, to spread the love

without a good movie, a message, vision

when it is not possible to be thankful.

Apes and apps changed the world, I admit.

A Dyson Dick has more value than old ethics.

I do not have time, to read.

LaLaLaLaLa!
