Hotel California


In the old days

we had the florin.


I may say, after one document after another

mental health has improved, worldwide.


It took me, 30 minutes.

I see a lot of crazy horses.


I gave 4 cahiers to the world.

I was 8. I know the name of my teacher.

A white paper page


Some people get scared of it.

It is a dream.


I have written it by silence.

The way of the winds

does not count

does not rely

on letters or numbers.


It was one look in his eyes.

All of my time


You can’t deal without a dealer.


Sheeps are wolves

and wolves are sheeps.


It had to be someone inferior, low.

I give him a crown, with the hardest stones on earth.


Since yesterday, night,

I see silver sparks!

I am stubborn.

My hands

My hands


Sensitive, small hands

touch a human race, closely

to its borders.


Strong, great hands hold

a way of describing old language

by a long, white coat.


I forgot her name.

I forgot her face, and existence.

I forgot all about, her.


Can someone, please, explain

me, then, who was it.


Hands are made of the small drops,

letters lost in ink.

On Sunday

Illustration : A simple, modest way


On Sunday


We had expensive clothes.

We share our books and potatoes.

The family has an hour for the children

while people do not wait, any longer for fire and water.


One book lasts a lifetime, doesn’t it.

A book will be read, at least, four times.

Stories are told, over and over, again

and we can’t write one letter in the Bible.


She makes dinner, after the tea in the afternoon.

I know, she made a mess, a real mess of it, but

a joke can’t turn in a joker, because it is impossible.

There was a silence. On Sunday.

In the middle

In the middle


No end, no beginning or start

are, there.

No goal, no purpose, no thunder or lightning

where, in my way!


I’m driving my High-Road

do not look left, do not look right

I’ve got no Time, for it.


No lights are lighting my fire

no water is troubling my clouds

and only darkened colours are the colour.


Someone was on the back, in my back

but I did not look, back, those days

as I was driving my free wheel ideas

of going a nowhere road to everywhere.


You know, when the skies are turning green

dark green, it gets blue

by finishing the red, purple and orange

fishes in yellow salmons!


Yellow salmons? Yes, yellow.

The oak tree

The oak tree


Around an old tree

wisdom was gathered.

Souls and minds do not speak

as time goes by.


I know, I understand,

a tree needs water

but not by roots of structures, or systems,

that do not hold, lines.


An oak falls in spring, not in autumn.

It is all about faith.

Má Vlast

Má Vlast

B. Smetana – Má Vlast (1874-1878)


History study, forgot about the essence

of human history.

In those days, I was a poor lad.


The candies in my pockets

had got, out of hand, as usual!

And with old coins, dark and silver,

still captured aside, I bought music


as heavy, a student could carry!!!


I knew, rivers are free, forever… .

Sun and stars

Photograph I : Flowers, all kinds of colours, Berkel-Enschot


Sun and stars


Normally, moon and stars go together.

In the night, I can see the stars

with the moon on a bright night.


A study requires a degree, not a level.


Sun and stars paint a song

in a sky

which has a place on earth.

Sky of heaven

[image error]


Photograph I : Petra Cecilia Maria Hermans


Sky of heaven


Times of far skies

were airs and winds.

Movements of thoughts

are emotions as a white light

because of full agreement.


I silence pencils in name

of old and fancy pens!


Ladders, chairs and books

were whitened

in lights of deep insights!


Sky of heavens were heavenly made

heaven knows a name.

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.
