Der arme Amfortas - Der will seinen Sturz immer noch nicht akzeptieren oder begreifen. Im gefallenen Still schickt er an, über andere zu regieren, herrisch, herrschsüchtig, herrenmenschlich und wird immer frustrierter, denn die Welt lässt sich nicht mehr lenken. Letztendlich beißt er zahnlos nicht mehr, nur bellt. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Im Jahrzehnt der deutschen Dichtung

REAFFIRMING DIGNITY
When a woman leaves a man who loves her to follow a man of money, it is the most crushing pain a man can feel. But if he does not let it kill him, it will only liberate him in the end. Every once in a while you have a chance to look at yourself in the mirror and tell yourself “I am somebody”. Something will push you there. Something that seems aimed at robbing you of your dignity, your pride, your self-respect. Something that will try to tie your actual value as a human being to some material status or achievement or level of acceptance by someone or some people. Something that will make you feel small. And nothing does this deeper than love that chooses money over you. Then you have to stand in front of the mirror and look into the soul of that man staring back at you and recognise his true value. Remind yourself of the principles at the core of your foundations as a Human Being. Remind yourself of what connects you to God and to true life. And teach yourself again that your value is more than your monetary wealth or material standing. And don’t allow anyone to tell you otherwise – not any man and not any woman. Because, In Your Dignity, You Are Somebody.

THE HEART WANTS TO UNEARTH IT
When you ask me Why I make all this rhyme The answer is What else should I be doing with my time But exactly this Nothing else is worth it The pain covers the bliss The heart yearns to unearth it What you will one day miss Your aching heart wants to birth it Every day Every blessed day Every single day. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
DON’T GET LOST IN THE DARK
Don’t get lost in the dark Wait for the mist to clear The emotions never speak the truth They are always informed and biased by feelings You just have to wait for the mist to clear It takes a shorter or longer time to pass Depending on your nature And depending on the circumstances Just don’t get lost in the dark. Azuka Chukwumerije
LOVE AND PAIN
Why is there so much hurt in this world? Why is it hard for people to join hearts without causing each other pain? Why is pain an unavoidable component of love and of togetherness? Is the human spirit really incapable of honest, pure, harmonious, mature love?
The people that love you are the people you will hurt, and they are the people that will hurt you the deepest and the most. And yet you cannot stop loving and you cannot stop loving them. Nor they you.
Who has ever found happiness on earth without it being laced with anguish and spiked with periodic doses of lacerating pain? If you haven’t found this, then you’ve never felt love yet. Because you can never find the love without the pain.

MEIN HERZ
Getragen von einer Lichtwolke, Losgelöst von jeglichem Volke, Unbesiegbar durch Schmerz Lebt und überlebt mein Herz. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Im Jahrzehnt der deutschen Dichtung
SWAN SONG
Always remember one thing If it’s true love it can’t move on overnight It has to close its ring Heal its wound, acquire new insight And make the heart a swan-song sing. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
SPRECHEN IST TUN
Ich liebe Sprache - Sie kann so viel mit so wenig tun. Ich fürchte Sprache - Sie kann so viel mit so wenig vertun. Ich geize mit Sprache - Sie kann um so viel mit so wenig sich vertun. Ich hüte Sprache - Sie kann so Vielen mit so wenig alles antun. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Im Jahrzehnt der deutschen Dichtung
WITHOUT YOU
The people you expect to be there Are farthest away when you need them near The beautiful world is barren and bare Without you. I need you here To share with me my hope and fear And marvel at the sunsets rare And be my sunrise and midnight clear. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river

Ich liebe Sprache - Sie kann so viel mit so wenig belichten. Ich fürchte Sprache - Sie kann so viel mit so wenig vernichten. Ich achte Sprache - Sie kann so viel mit so wenig anrichten. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Im Jahrzehnt der deutschen Dichtung
