I heard you
screaming without any words

I felt you
thinking you were walking all alone

I tasted
your chance given to me to come into your life

I looked at us
while we were falling in love
You don't talk
but your eyes speak
Powerful words
that make me weak

I miss your touch
it has been a week
This sensory punishment
is your worst technique

Vapours of cabbage

are drawing throughout the house –


with cooking noises.
“De trap” (“The staircase”, 1937, Martinus Nijhoff)

Collection "Actively Passive"
wait for the waft
of familiar scents
to speak to you
stealing you away,
nostalgia

a sight been seen
touches you felt
a noise you heard
a scent been smelt

love in the air
i sniff it all up
get high off the drugs
its love in the air

love in the air
can you feel that tension?
getting high off your sweetness
you're finally showing you care

love in the air
overwhelmingly
so

the smell of tenderness sweethearts
lavender and roses
alarmingly strong it stays in my mind

love in the air
passion and open
respectable love
im sniffing it up
breathing it all
oh my
the love is in the air.

The Earth is an aquarium in which we live
reality so sure that it leaks like a sieve.

We understand what we can see touch and feel, but other matters seem so unreal.

Thousands of years we have run around, but not even one footprint on Mars can be found.

We are trapped here from birth until the end of our days, to run like rats in this furious maze.

Death comes to all who are part of this race. It is the great collision between reality and faith.
