Friday Poems / ShortPoems 21.07.2017 / 20.01.2017





Artery
    If
The
Artery
Is
Bleeding
The
Flow
Gets
Weaker
    And
Weaker

Wall
    On the
One
Side
Of the
Cemetery wall
The
Flowers
Are
Fragrant
On
The other
Side
    Just
Quietness

Gloaming
    When
In the
Gloaming
The sky
Burns
And
Silhouettes
Merge
With
Shadows
    Into the
Night

Quietness
    As soon as
We’ll
Have
Burnt
Everything printed
And
Deleted
All
Files
There
Will be
    Quietness
Again

Molasses
    The
Silence
Of
The night
Is
Like
Molasses
Black
    And
Viscous

Calmness
    Conserve
Calmness
Or
Do you
Think
Tranquility
On
The
Cemetery
    Is en-
Forced?

Friday
    The fire
Had been
Freed
Like
The water
Too
Just
The wind
They
Kept
    Bound with
Ropes

Friday is Freitag in German, Frei comes from Frija or Frigg, the Nordic Goddess of marriage and motherhood, some say it comes from Freya, the Goddess of love. But frei also means free.

Whipped Cream
    Whipped
Cream
And
Stroke
Lie
Closer
Together
Than
We
    Would
Like to

Whipped Cream or Schlagsahne and stroke or Schlaganfall lie closely together in German. Think of the coincidence of the German words, but see that indeed whipped cream and stroke lie together.
