    So the health crisis provoqued by the novel coronavirus has indeed prevented me from my intention to blog on a regular weekly basis as I have already missed writing on two weekends. But then I read Amanda Palmer’s call on Patreon this morning and with then already around 400 comments I sat down to answer the following questions: where you are? city? country? how long you’ve been in lockdown? what are the rules? are they…

  • Episode VIII

    Last weekend I missed writing to my blog. Actually I had not planned to publish a blog post on a regular basis every weekend when I resumed writing at the beginning of January this year. As I wanted to write about the podcasts I like listening to I managed to keep posting continuously on a weekly basis about several podcasting topics before later starting to write about other topics, too.

Animals have always played an important part in your life. Your mind has darkened, the only color you see is ebony. Tears have flowed, tears will flow. Separation anxiety is the wind that blows around the sword of Damocles that hangs above your head. At the gates…

  • Nostalgia

    Nostalgia is like polarising glass. It filters out reflexions of presence.

  • coldrain

    at the sound of the bell you return home. your clothes are soaked, cold raindrops run down your face. they fall like needles just to merge into the rill on the ground heading towards the river. your fingers clutching the cold torch feel like steel, your frosty feet are like a gate to coldness. if only those tears could flow to give your cheeks the warmth they are yearning for so long.
