Puppetry

Behind every stage curtain
Conceals the roles of the play
Behind the curtain of the world
The role of the One
A hidden secret

When it is revealed, the curtain falls…

Playground of the mind

 

 

How long still
In the whirl
Of nights and shadows?

Spiders spinning
Nets of games
Tempting, wringing
Twisting names

Giving and taking
Losing and shaking
Tricks in pockets
Fired words, smart rockets

Lost the lights and ways
Preaching the nights as days
Mixed in confusion
To call it love and fusion

At the edge of these games
Eagles fly in the sky
Free from words and names
Pure, without a lie

Look in the light
Dear friend of truth
Sail like a kite
From yourself let loose

How long still
In the whirl
Of nights and shadows?

In the nameless land
There is a giving hand…

Empty Phrases

 

 

There are often worlds between words and deeds.
Yesterday still lifted into the sky
Today the cloak of friendship thrown off
With feelings in the wind escaped

Words that sounded credibly faded away
Broken into pieces, lost their validity
On the parquet of unsteadiness
Turning away from friendliness, kindness

Those flattering words echo in the memory
Sounds from afar of moments past
Leaving stars burnt out
Empty phrases, words without content

Shall we believe in flattering words?
Those that turn in the wind?
Lose their content, are forgotten easily?
Those which praised us yesterday and curse us today?

Man promises much and says a lot
Within the turning of his kaleidoscopic feelings
To change his credibility in the wheel of time
Dissolved into punishing silence

Only the language of the heart remains constant
That of the mind is subject to change…

A leaf in the wind…
