Believe it or not,
Her Royal Highness portrayed
as a Page Three Girl;

Neither in The Sun,
nor the Daily Mirror. though.
Cost me two shillings.

Misty Saturday Morning

Quietude.

Liekkas




Warm

Beneath a starlit sky
I make traces
As signs of the northern light
dance above

In the care of silence
my breathing echoes
Something whispers to me
that you are on your way

Hold my hand
Stroke my cheek
Whisper beautiful words
Comfort me tenderly
Please, be warm so I woun't freeze
Give me also a yoik...

Warm

Under a blanket of stars
I'm leaving traces
as signs from the northern lights
flicker in the sky

In the care of silence
my breaths resonate
Something whispers
that you are on your way

Hold my hand
Stroke my cheek
Whisper beautiful words
Soothe me softly
Be warm
so I'm not cold
Give me a yoik...

Friday is Skyday

Practise flight; slowly,

Balcony Views

Strange morning light,
and a first blossom carpet.

Monochrome Monday

Being twelve weeks young,
would s/he have thought of a trip
to France? Cèst la vie. :)

Galore

Delight for my eyes
waiting for the bumble bees
Ah! Hear them humming?

Uisge Beatha

Water I get served
in many ways by my folks.
This way it tastes best.

Criminal Idiotic Antisocial


When I am coming to think of that criminal bastards like – choose your favourite's name – can lean back whenever these rotten criminal bastards in Washington / the Community of Values /  are talking about human rights, I can't eat as much as I'd like to vomit.

After all, it's a report by a US-Senate Committee.


P.S.: When will anglophones realise that spying not necessarily has anything to do with intelligence?

Goldfingers aka Scumbags

Readers who regularly do read what my "Seldom Boring" friends (on the sidebar) are posting will know that not only when it comes to "Turkish affairs" Erkan's Field Diary is an excellent source.

Some months ago this very headline caught my interest:

Meet Sarraf,

the Great (Turkish) Gatsby





Reading the article added to  certain thoughts that Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Effendi would not only call a prejudice.
After all, Turkishness is unrivalled, eh?
