the long nose of stuttgart.

i’m way too fucking poor
for this city
i don’t care about money
but i can’t reach people.

this whole place is an antique store
‘do not touch’
— thanks, the management

i haven’t felt
the human in a persons’ eyes
since i’ve been here.

it’s a foggy karfreitag.

I made it back from Berlin and had an incredible time there. Nothing like spending a week with friends in a world capital.

the best part about germany

is that you can get places. a few hours ago i decided to visit freiburg, a city which is about 2 hours away from Stuttgart and rather close to the french border and strasbourg. i got some books, a jacket, and a bottle of wine and put them in my day-pack, and tomorrow i’ll get up, take the bus into stuttgart, and hop on a train, westbound. i’m meeting with one of my best friends, so we can celebrate our own little christmas together. at the end of the day, it’s just another train ride home. the ability to travel without a personal vehicle is completely wonderful.

It’s snowing here in little Grötzingen.
