They didn’t want to go for ice cream, they said,

They didn’t want to go for ice cream, they said, because they had eaten something sweet already. I wasn’t unhappy, because it had been a humid day and the thought of sticky fingers was not appealing. Instead we sat down in the park and drank the sage tea they had brought from home. When we met, we didn’t know whether to hug, so I awkwardly poked the tips of my fingers into their outstretched palms. Something, that felt at the same time too much and too little, both transgressive and shy. They thanked me for the work, I had done for them, and I said that I was glad how it went, given the circumstances. We watched a young dog running around in excitement, followed by its owner. We laughed at the dogs name, but I can’t remember what it was. They gave me a list of things they had read or listened to the past weeks. And we talked about a possible project on winds. It would be nice, Hans Unstern said, if you wrote one last thing for me. Like a farewell letter or something. I tried a couple of times. But like so many things these days, it always felt too much and too little at the same time. Maybe, I wrote to them, this awkwardness will be our new common ground. Maybe, there’s worse places to be.

You called and asked me silly questions. Questions

You called and asked me silly questions. Questions designed to go under the skin, I suppose. You, too, failed to understand the mystery of tissue, that no matter how deep you poke and pinch there’s only ever a new thousandfold of membranes, „miles and miles of perfect skin". And so, penetration is a myth, I thought, but I didn’t know how to explain it. You asked something about the harp, that I didn't quite catch, because I had stared at the thick, callused skin on my fingertips. Maybe, if I could touch you with them, I thought, you would understand. . .

At one point, you turned to me over your ice cream

At one point, you turned to me over your ice cream and asked how I would translate „systemrelevant“ into English. It had come up in a conversation you had had recently. You had wanted to say that you were sure it would become the „Unwort“ of the year. But then you didn’t know how to say „Unwort“. And you noticed again how all the peculiarities of your life in this country were lost in translation. Maybe that’s a good thing, I said. Sometimes I found losing and failure were good ways of letting things go and make systems collapse. „irrelevant cis-tem failure“, you said out of the blue and grinned. It was stupid, but it made me chuckle while I licked pink ice cream from in between my fingers.

You said that often in May you would be sad, because you realized again that you hadn’t paid enough attention to the lengthening of the days. Every minute gained, you said, should have been celebrated. I really know no one who adores the sun as much as you do. I am more of an oceanic person, I said quietly, and the sea is never celebrated, I said, the sea is always missed. And yet, you said, she never misses one second of the light. It’s because she has so much time, I said. The only lover who has enough time for all the light that the sun has to offer.

You said the bike-rides lately through a mainly empty city had catapulted you back to the lazy days of your adolescence. Where your immediate surrounding seemed so void while the virtual surrounding in your head, your computer, and your heart was buzzing with promises and adventures. You had remembered recently, you said, how your best friend at that time had called your provincial life „an exercise in pointlessness“. The two of you had laughed about his words. But now you understood that all exercises, as pointless as they may seem, were teachings none the less.

You said you had just entered a deep state of boredom. It had been painful at first but now that you had sunken to the bottom of it, you remembered its psychedelic qualities. All objects had lost their qualities, all words had collapsed into meaningless sounds, and now your body evaporated rhythmic patterns into the air, you watched them float around, carried by your breath, until they dissipated and were gone. Now your mind and your sex slow-danced to the deep rhythms of the sea and the spinning of the world. Remember when we sat at the lake, you began … Then you paused. There was something you wanted to say, you said, but you had forgotten what it was. I love you, I laughed. That’s right, you said, that’s what it was.

In your dream, your hair had grown longer and longer, until you rested on a bed made entirely of your own hair. But it kept growing. Out of the windows, under the doors, and into the sockets, where it fused with the electrical wires that crossed the world faster than any virus. This way you became the center of a beautiful machine, spinning hair into gold and gold into sound and sound into longing from which more hair grew. The center is the least important point, for all love was peripheral. This is where your hair was headed: towards a place where you were not. The center, your hair whispered, is itself nothing but a dream. Its purpose is to become important instead of you.

Today, your parcel came. I had to pick it up from

Today, your parcel came. I had to pick it up from the DHL-person who sells self-made hand sanitizer from under the counter. It was kind of heavy, but my heart was light-footed. And so, in the sunlight in my room, I unboxed your soul, and took out all the life-saving unnecessities you had put in there. On a card, you had written, that you lived like a fox in the forests south of Munich now. I stared into the dreamworld for what seemed a life time, and took everything I could find there, swallowed it with my thymus gland and sent it your way. Now, I lie here naked, eyes closed, waiting for you. Oh baby, unbox me.

You had moved into the apartment almost a year ago

You had moved into the apartment almost a year ago, and you still hadn’t fully unpacked, the floor was only half painted, and there were cables coming out of the wall like hair from an unshaved armpit. You said, you didn’t mind, and that you had no intention of changing it any time soon. Especially now, that you had to spend so much time at home, you realized how much you liked it. It seemed to you, you said, that all the roughness of your surrounding allowed you to be extra soft and small and cuddly against it. It's not hostile, you said as a sudden beam of sunlight touched your face, it’s flirtatious. . . .

Today in a week DIVEN is released 💅👾🧚🏻‍♀️💞

You had moved to the city out of a longing, you sa

You had moved to the city out of a longing, you said. A longing for more space, more freedom, and more people who thought and felt and laughed the way you did. Now they tried to tell you that video chats were better than nothing, but you weren’t convinced. There was no music in it. You had always thought about this place as an instrument for 3.5 million players, and you hated this new silence. And yet, you had to realize, you said, that its sound was not so different from the sound of longing. It, too, carried a promise, that we would love, touch, and play again. I miss you, too, I said. So very, very much.

Do you remember, you said, when the only appropria

Do you remember, you said, when the only appropriate way to take a picture of yourself was to use a self-timer? And how you had 10 or so seconds to run away from the camera and freeze into a pre-decided aesthetic formula? Then came this brief moment of uncertainty and grinning, when no one knew, if the picture had already been taken or not, like a micro-quarantine of composure, exposure and posing. A crisis is just this, you said: a period of extended uncertainty, where self and time are split apart. And if you had learned one thing from all the stiff family pictures that came out of it, it was this: To not sit still, but to reclaim time and to blur the image of the self.⁠

You called and said you had called Laurie to tell

You called and said you had called Laurie to tell them how much they had shaped you. Not only your thoughts, and the way you saw things, but also your movements and behavior. How their grace, softness and patience had made you wanting to try and be like them. Only with them, you said, you had truly understood why the self is really just an endless puzzle, made of friends, and lovers, and of our heroins from books and movies. And because it’s endless, you said, there’s no point in looking for that one missing piece that would make everything whole. They had shown you the perfection in your incompleteness. In that sense, you said and laughed, Laurie had literally puzzled you ever since you met.
