what keeps me
up
running
bookkeeping
missing the excitement
of last weekʼs event
after the rush
before the rush
lost
so lost
millstone words
around my neck
women dying
raped
murdered
news from brasilia
rape victims under 13 have to give birth
to rape-children
news from austria
this year
until today
14 femicides committed
what keeps me up
i push myself
to justice
poison
the nazis poison
living together
starts getting harder
the country iʼm living in
is getting politically worse
busy with mom
busy with the family
does anybody vote
for the right wing party
for war
for misogyny
for hate
for corruption
i need a handbook for love
we all need a handbook for lovemy head
is empty
and full
at the same time
now
cosmos of care
of love and support
of nurturing and despair
hope
hope
the right wing is wrong
and
the left wing is empty
my left hand seems free
my left hands are free
left hands are free
is the left free
are the lefties free
the goal of politics is freedom
should be freedom
my identity is killing me
my individuality gives no pleasure
to my sisterhood
