22 January 2015

With naked feets on the dusty sand road

Dust floating around

I will arrive when you must have been there

tracks of traffic

While the view of branches in the garden stay the same

I watch you proceeding

while they would line up waiting to cross roads

continue their way

the news has already been written

you whispered that I could undress

But I'd  like to arrive barefoot on the road

through the desert

impressions of your presence

Stay and feel the layer of sand heating up

Who would you ask?

18 August 2014

A long the natural forest and the two dead birds

planted one

I found an earring in the earth

There is a wardrobe full of things

nobody seems to know from who they belonged

I ate two flowers a pink purple one and a lila one

It taste like salad



Yesterday we sat around the fire and the boys where talking about the villages where the were born

Platana was transported with makinas along the cable

where these machines where hanging there was a path

At one point of the path you had to walk very fast,

people said that a phantom of someone who died lived there

The machines hanging on the cable made strange sounds

A long the way

A long the road

There where two dead birds covering eachother with their wings

Melted wax on the stones of the path

Ancient walls

A piece of coconut

A ritual? Someone killed two pigeons


In a way they died together

Which was romantic

I could feel some presence

Cursie

Barro Blanco

I started playing music on plastic buckets

Swinging the hips from the right to the left

Drums away the thoughts

Just the rithem of the plastic tons and different sizes of buckets

a hollow deep sound

asked for my full presence

for a second the body and mind joined

I got out of the second bus

Barro Blanco

the miss of the little white church was about to start

at the same moment people gathered from all sides

I wanted a beer

A man tried to convince me to take another drink because it was cold

When he saw me drinking the beer

he went off to the church

I saw the priest arrive with the car

One meter bellow the ground there is white mud

to make plates

Houses made off garbage in Moravia

Lina asked me to join her, while I just woke up, I agreed

The centre of Moravia a school full of kids

All of them screaming for attention

incredible I thought this noise

I wonder if childeren in the Netherlands could reach for the same volume

We never knew eachother as a child

You should try again to be as strong as you where

when you where a child

You should let go

Am I your first Brazilian man

I was suprised

I pushed his head away when he tried to kiss me

Dancing in the same places again

with a man who has 5 million dollars

I miss you salsa

I recognize the place

Somewhere is somewhere far away

Medellin for the third time

I do not want to work with you but I like you as a person

Sometimes you end up in situations like this

Medellin again with a plan

Some plan but not a strict plan

The airport and the road downwards

different perspectives on the city

with lights twinkeling away

Somehow I feel this strong attraction to this city

The chaos of the city the city with lights

the hills with lights

My friend was not at the airport

I asked someone for help

We were in the back of the car with four persons

The driver took sharp curves with full speed

The woman next to me showed me photos of her child that was just born

Felicitationes I said

the car took more sharp curves downwards

back into the city where my friend was waiting with a cab

I was happy to see him

Girl you dont know much

She did not know the difference between a regular coffee and a coffee machiatto

How do you make a coffee machiatto?

She stared at us as if the question was very odd

People sleeping under blankets

the bus station
Back in Sao Paulo

Mummies around 5 o clock

Soon they would wake up

I had to go

A rush of adrenaline flourished through my body

The man next to me called someone

again he kept ringing people in the bus

Well I tried to unwrapp myseld of my rain clothing

I accidently sat next to him in my underwear

quickly I covered myself with clothes

Than he talked about salsa or some other dance

I assumed he was calling different women

I asked him after some hours

Sin sonido por favor?

P. and M.

I observe the people around the metro

they walk

coming from different exits

Right, left from under from above

From the asphalt

Out of the asphalt

Between a cloud of pigeons stands a man

A round the pigeons stands a man

With his back and waving hands as if he is a pigeon

feeding them

dusting pigeons

in circles in the air

And there are P. and M. always cheerfull into their adventure

We swim in circles

in the tiny swimming pool of 2 by 3 metres

Than it rains and their is a electricity cut

in the darkness we think of a plan

a plan without a beginning and an end

You look like you are going to the moon
