Weight(lessness)

 As the sun slowly gets to the other part of the world, leaving us in the dark, some very tiny, little creatures come alive and they fly in search of light. This is so paradoxical, to wait for the night and then to search for the light, or is it metaphorical? 


Maybe it is always this that is happening, we search for things that are missing. We search and search and find alternatives.  


         At night these beautiful, designed creatures come inside; they say that it brings bad news and bad luck while some believe they are angels from heaven with good messages. But for me they are nature’s wonders. Good or evil, they bring the intricate crafting sense of an unknown creator---an artist. 


I sit here, silence 

like shimmering flame of truth 

the moth searching light 



I took photos of these insects, watching them every night to remember these alien days when I was searching for the meaning in all the changes around the world, the arrogance and ingratitude. 


 


delicate wings 

carrying off the weight(lessness)

light, a distant mark

Stand tall




Catrin Welz-Stein’s images



Stand tall 

The pink hue  

                    roses I have grown// 

YOU 

Burn nights to decipher my look 

        To read every chapter  

                   Like I am an owned book// 

 

Undeniable scratches on time-scape 

                                   Thorns I have grown 

You push bushes forward---ah! Messiah --- 

                                Like I am a deer so frozen// 

 

I am roots, leaves and flowers on time-scape 

Of creation and of nurturing 

Turn your vicious nails and scratch it on your dead flesh 

                        Until it splits open to bleed 

And gulp down the pain, the syllables too. 

Straighten your eyes, your back; 

I stand here tall, rosy hue, cyphered look; 

Stand tall, know my eyes, don’t push bushes, 

Walk beside me, talk and know S P A C E 

                                              Around me, you and everything.
