Because evil will find you

this
is a colonial disease

whether in Damascus
or two hour's drive from Vienna,
evil will find you

how'ever you may try to skirt it.

I like this one very much. Had a funny thought about Germany today. I think people who are german, or had to become one under circumstances, are so broken by nature, that in moments of crisis the only thing that can come out is depravity, utter desolate depravity. And if they raging a war at you, in which you refuse to take part or engage in, because back in your homeland, such exchange are much more nuanced and humane, and within the limits of ethical, you are simply misunderstood. Silence here is the effacement of agency, and to your self-elected opponent/enemy will show up your weakness only and vulnerability. They will pat themselves on their back for being able to execute (in all sense of the term) so neatly. And I can only weep for them, weep that they have been reduced to such utter, morbid, petrifying, putrefying humanity!
Can there be silence in void, mine shall be that one. This is a silence that revels in incomprehension
Reading your blog, I wondered in what or what similar lines you might have been thinking.
And do not ask me to decrypt this crptic remark. In the heart of your heart you will "entschlussel" it. I like that word, and keep it to yourself, if that be the nature of our friendship.
I shall know how to fathom your understanding in your response(s).
