Tag: Germany

There was nothing else to explain the change.
There is nobody here for you.
The flashes of light were like blasts of music.
The silence in the house was so intense it hummed.
You understand this could have been much worse.
It wasn’t a big deal.
Is there anything you want to say?
All manner of things shall be well.
A subtle but real pressure.
You make yourself bigger than you are.
She understands everything.
It seems like a place one shouldn’t disturb.
They’ve never discussed it again.
It wasn’t much more complicated than that.
There’s always dessert.
How could it be getting dark already?
He was just intense, slightly feral.
The place seems poised for a postcard.
The air smells like diesel.
Doesn’t that look nice?
Often he didn’t sleep well.
The tiny stretch of daylight that will become summer.
The seconds pass.
And what did he find?
It will be there.
The answer or the question, one or the other.
He had lost a great and wonderful silence.
It was more like a silence.
He used to have a place in his mind where he could go.
I think the cat was sad.
What have I done now?
The night was very big out there.
The loss of that place made him unsure of this one.
It was a love song, or a sad song.
It felt like the end of things.
It has the sound of something totally inevitable.
You will never be done with it.
And you just can’t do it like that.
A chill comes over you.
It’s like there’s nobody out there in the dark at all.
It’s all work, it’s all a kind of armor.
You’re not in the mood for conversation.
Nobody’s perfect.
Let there be no confusion.
Crazy they call me.
I couldn’t picture any part of it at all.
I thought about it for a long time.
Where would I be in four years?
Now what?
Try to have some perspective.
