The Design Strategist
You say to be relevant
one needs to know the truth
By not acknowledging the truth
one stops being relevant
The Artist Liaison
Collectors are dying out in the USA
at the age of eighty
their kids don't want the art
the museums don't want to store it
New collectors are on the rise in South-East Asia
where they're young
like twenty-two
The Busdriver
the departing words
of the last customer
are hanging in the air
at the bakery

yells on his break drinking coffee
sitting next to me,
belatedly
I laugh he laughs we laugh
for unanswered goodbyes
we know
bring schlechte Laune
and a daily doses of melancholy
