La Barceloneta, Barcelona (Spain) June 2018 Like water and earth, like fire and air, apprentice and master begin their dance. As the loyal apprentice you are, you follow the master in his steps eagerly soaking up the essence until it becomes your own nature. Such is the start of a poet’s way, learning to dare to play with ideas and words, to stop being a cold observer, to be and create enunciated art. In the complex dance of poet and linguist lexemes and semes leave way to imagery brilliant and rich. In the endless dance of humble words, enjoyable worlds are born from light among shadows.

Sky over La Barceloneta, Barcelona (Spain) June 2018 Splendid blue, sparkling Spring on Mediterranean shores. Stormy gray, exhausted mood, rough weather in the making. Magnificent contrast between vital experience and skills, spring-like brightness in a never-ending dawn. Stormy gray, companion to farewells, friend of ever returning routines, threatens your peace of mind. An open look, though, beyond the horizon of solitude will bring back the missing light, creative and rich, of unchained words. And with those words set free the stormy gray will fade into the fertile light of the spring-like bright blue.

In the air. October 2016 It hurts. Indescribably. Around my heart a deep groove sent me into a tailspin. A tailspin not so easily stopped. It hurts. To get my heart stomped on, to get my feelings ignored, to be just thrown away like yesterday’s news. Discarded in life, worth living though. Again searching for that anchor able to steady me, able to ground me, able to make me feel not only human, but a worthy human again. Resurfacing from a swamp of pain, thorny bushes around, with no ground underneath, without a way to keep afloat. Above the pain I am bound to rise, above the pain I have to fly, soar in the air I so dearly crave to feel complete again, complete to be blown into pieces. But, be assured, once again I will find every single piece, once again I will be there to piece myself again into the wholeness I deserve. So now stand up, breathe deep, dry your eyes, smile and go on.
