DIAGNOSTICS

I visited New Jersey once in the thirties. I needed distance. My uncle said he’d rather be a hooker or a banker. Sometimes I want to be a librarian in a glass gallery shushing the painters and poets and I better keep my eye on them. I have no thought of serving either you or my own glory, my daughter said damp with tears. I try not to use adverbs or adjectives or seek solace in others' misfortunes. Let’s get it straight. I have no further use for you. Drunk and drinking, the bath is being drawn and I am putting on my best act yet, complete with diamonds and feathers. I can hear everyone talking about me in the garden and laughing at my hair. Maybe you were right all along.

my friends... the unintentional poets... mostly anonymous... by location...

"yeah... like that's poetry man..."

"no...what i meant is that what YOU said IS POETRY man..."




NEW JERSEY:

BERLIN:

Big fat snowflakes in berlin eastcross colour the street white (and a strong wind gives impression as if snow doesn’t come from the sky above, but from a machine hidden at the left side of my window and blows the really fat flakes horizontal - nice picture, especially when you are sitting inside with crackling sound in the oven), but its not cold enough and everything gets just wet in a few minutes. 

 Don’t worry about the lost flight or the money. You don’t.
I missed you the same morning, being lucky and sad and smiling all the time, so someone in the s-bahn thought seeing an apparition, smiled back and invited me (tipsy and still a beer in my hand-Tuesday at ten a.m.) spontaneous for breakfast. Such a sunny morning! that after three hours of sleep I had to stand up again and take a funny sunny walk with anne-marie.

Liebe Gruesze !!! and a kiss
