Our Wonky Digital Consciousness

We’re experiencing from screens; human, animal, machine. I feel like I’ve been to the US, Africa and Asia, I sure make references as if I would’ve. I pluck a vague memory from a series made in anywhere, which faulty leads me to believe, this, what I see, is how it must be there. I feelContinue reading “Our Wonky Digital Consciousness”

The Search for Completion

It’s easy to become restless on an empty sea. I searched for islands, islets and land. I found nothing there. I continued, I hoped for rowdy waves, deep caves even whales. My patience departed as I struck my foot down on a nail. Blood came out and ah, finally, pain. It wasn’t the sensation IContinue reading “The Search for Completion”

Perception Misconception

a Sweltering Summer

I came naked out of the shower when I noticed; the first rays of summer-sun shone onto my bed. As if they were a blanket, I crawled underneath them and let their gentle warmth caress my body. This body which had yearned for their touch throughout a winter’s eternity. As she spread her energy allContinue reading “a Sweltering Summer”

See and make seen

I didn’t know you for long. A day after your death I backtracked how long we actually had known each other for.

I pushed that annoying inkling of disappointment awayContinue reading “See and make seen”

Stockings too thin

Shoulders up by my ears Freezing wind, forcing tears A jacket too cold Stockings too thin Autumn begging to begin Kisses from him Comforts me in the whirlwind of endings; beginnings losses; winnings Every winter I flee to a land with endless green leaves Yet I remain for here are my kin keeping me warmContinue reading “Stockings too thin”

Fall. In. Love. Again. and. Again

I fell in love three days ago when we sat in the bed of a friend, surrounded by friends, and we made jokes that no one else gets This morning you walked into the bathroom as a bearded man When you came out you had shed your beard I on the other hand, shed nothingContinue reading “Fall. In. Love. Again. and. Again”

Stockholm Charades

Summer flies to foreign countries the spirits of autumn settle in People, kissed by a healing wind waiting for the harsh winter to begin as the sun enters hibernation Swedes work on their winter accusations but in their minds live warm memories of Summer fragments that will keep them together

Nature, a Double-Edged Sword

She lures you in, seduces you with brisk air and long-sought-after golden rays of sun. She sprinkles the streets in leaves which hold all spectrums of colors, she hypnotizes you.

Apocalyptic Delight

We are striving in the light of pain Thriving in apocalyptic delight A life on the edge desperately searching for magic destructive behavior The constant search for a savior For at times, life is bleached by the ruthlessness of futility It’s senseless to believe we’re only here for fertility when everything circles our minds abilityContinue reading “Apocalyptic Delight”

A Stockholm Chimera

There lies peace in this morning, it is nesting on the streets, huddling together with relief in a solemn embrace. Our beautiful city is a memory now, it exists in a thousands of digital and analogue photo albums, and in the minds of those who wandered these streets. Some of them, or many rather, areContinue reading “A Stockholm Chimera”

Cacophony Misfortune

I can’t bear the sounds of the world, how they catapult and throw themselves upon each other combined into a hollow scream containing all horror created by mankind Ghastly moans from a neglected child The solemn sigh from a lonely soul A silent sob, one the citizens of the world has heard too many times,Continue reading “Cacophony Misfortune”

Love, Never happened

We tremble As we stride through unknown territories To the sound of ‘Harmony of Pheromonies’ We reach As we speak quietly For each other’s inner entirety We seek As we, eyes locked, gaze solemnly For some sort of certainty We test As we tease in elation For a higher state of affirmation We find notContinue reading “Love, Never happened”

When Heaven Split in Ice & Fire

Have I told you about that morning the 29th of January when heaven separated the world in ice and fire?

Just wait. Continue reading “When Heaven Split in Ice & Fire”
