Fog safety

I loom from a fog
Of apathy
Dullness
And downheartedness

Just like that
All of a sudden
Unexpectedly

I feel
Normal
A kind of excited
Positive

And the things that need to be done today
Work out wonderfully simple
So
I give it an extra mile
And do more things

Then

These actions
Are running rough
My impatience boils over
And culminates, explodes
In aggression, impatience, negativity
And hopelessness

The fog, there she is again,
Surrounds me












The day will still take a while
And I'm exhausted

I give in
To the world of mists
There I find a safe place
Where I attend to nestle for some time

There is no choice

Aesthetic death of my town

Hold on (nothing's the same)

I had to enter the supermarket, alone And was happy No more scores of people, pushing  Quietness, … at the cash desks Then After a short while It felt kind of spooky Me, in this surrealistic surrounding Sligro Tuesday afternoon March 24 2020 I have this love hate relation with people 1.5 meters distance to another human being No problem, what a relief Sooner than I could imagine I started to miss these folks by the minute Also I had to concentrate on the shopping “Cheese, eggs, fresh vegetables…” “Hey, they play some really good songs” I danced a bit “I will pass you via this side” And the supermarket employer involved in this scene said  “Thanks” “Thank you”, I replied My thoughts on humankind Which dropped  Dramatically the last weeks Changed a bit, positively upwards In a relax mood I continued “Oh yes, almonds, raisins, taco chips…” “Wow, is it true?” “Do I hear the opening chords of this song?” Yes, y

Lockdown horroshow

Eind april, 2020, Nederland In tegenstelling tot huidhonger dat velen ervaren Verlang ik naar de zogenaamde stilte Id est De relatieve rust van Leiden Van voor de coronatijd Tijdens deze, voor sommige mensen, crisis Is het mogelijk In Nederland  Om te genieten van coronarust Deze rustvorm bestaat echt Immers Het wordt door veel media en hun gebruikers getoond Aan de hand van foto’s en filmpjes Dus het is Waar en hoe dan? Het is hier in Leiden  Aan het water Heel druk Zo ook op de straten Op de grachten en singels vaart een bonte stoet bootjes  Protserige sloepen met daarin middenstanders Speedbootjes met een lading testosteron aan boord Achenebbisje studentenpieremachochels van het Leidse corps  En de ondefinieerbare lagen daartussen  In eendrachtige eenheid  Gebroederlijk veelal te hard varend Maken zij hun ‘Rondjes Leiden’  Spookachtige rondjes  Een doelloze onafgebroken onveranderlijke cyclus  The Horror...
