seven

friday afternoon subway

(31/01 & 01/02/97)

friday afternoon subway
and suddenly
it seems to me
i'm riding on a
tram full of zombies
dead eyes
ears closed
faded lipstick
am i the only one alive
a green-yellow-orange tie
clashes with a
red-blue jacket
in despairing disharmony
maybe that'll
wake them up

dream #34

(13/02/97)

i am skipping my rope on
YELLOW BRICK ROAD
pondering over
an encounter with alice

did she get lost on her way to
WONDERLAND

heigh-ho heigh-ho
she said
but these are not her lines
THIS IS A COVER VERSION
of the seven dwarfs

OH NO
says a grinning cheshire cat
everything is nothing
ALICE WILL BORROW NEVER STEAL
tomorrow she gave back
the words

silence

(25/03/97)

i could break a window
   a plate
to end this silence

you could break our hearts
by keeping it up

on-line.affair

(27/03/97)

private room
"for our pleasure"
in bits and bytes

i'm all f.e-m@il
and you

they call me
the wild web-ber *S*
come and get entangled
in my wwspiderweb, baby *G*
i caress my keyboard
the f stands for your face
the b for breasts and belly
the l for legs
and maybe later
a v for vagina

yes honey
send your balls into the net
it's our game only
our heaven in vast cyberspace
and this connection
will not fail

taking my leave

(03/02/97)

saying goodbye
once more
does hurt
con te partiró
but it's not true
you'll stay
stay on
while i must part
loaded with memories
my sweet immortal
burden

intoxicated

(10/06/97)

raumvoll festge-räusche
leidenschaftstrunken
verschmelze ich
mit deinem lachen
das meine    sinne kapert
   seele entert
   vernunft zerpflügt
eingeraucht von
dunklen nuancen deiner stimme
ertrinke ich willig
im gewühl entgleister emotionen

lust

(04/08/1997)

i am all anticipation
lust tickles my nipples

your fingers breathe life
into my hidden jewel

souls and bodies unite
in soft moist purple fever

sweet sweet release
mingles with desperate words unspoken
