Silent Car Ride

Silent car ride,
the world wakes earlier
in all its ugliness.

I don't know
what you dream of.

But I know it's not
the burning scars,
the screaming talking heads,
the faces peeling from everyone.

I wish my only dreams
were nightmares.

Tears on the diamond,
steady rhythm pounding
in my head.

Once a month
my brain hurts.

Get me high
on the pain
so I won't feel the painkillers
anymore.

In desert of my emotions,
sometimes
I imagine things
that aren't there.

Saturday Night

Let me introduce a new label to you. It won't be a label I'll post a lot under, but it might be interesting to some of you: Writing. I'll post some short stories, maybe essays, and in general longer texts under this label. Here is a short story I wrote for a contest once. It didn't win anything, but since the whole thing is over, I can now post it here. Enjoy.

All the Universes

Light travels fast, light travels far, come and travel with me and with light... far, far away... to the farthest realm... darkness surrounds me, but soon the sky lights up with millions and millions of stars and I am not alone. Oh, sweet cosmic abyss, embrace my poor soul and make me immortal, so I can see... so I can feel... all the universes... all the universes out here... swimming through time until the end of it and the start of a new time in oh so many dimensions... spread out, crumbled up, sticking together, floating, rolling, turtleneck dimensions.

This was an early picture that I took with my mum's first digital camera. I had lots of fun with the macro function in our backyard and in some of the parks in our little town. That was before I was made aware that people would usually deal drugs in those parks and was forbidden to go. I went anyways.
