Im Themenmonat Angst posten wir neben Artikeln auch andere Literatur-Formate. Heute: “Vertrauter Weg”, ein Gedicht von Esther Bartke.

“No surface holds. No figure, line, or point remains. No ground subsists. But no abyss, either. Depth, for us, is not a chasm. Without a solid crust, there is no precipice. Our depth is the thickness of our body, our all touching itself. Where top and bottom, inside and outside, ...
The witch craze wages a war against Lilith, who, born from Adam’s clay, refused to obey the Man. The burnings of her kindred become great public spectacles. Lilith leaves her life to the flames, sacrificed upon the altar of a fabricated God. But her truth will be known in the ...
Something happened to queerness in the 1990s. Not only did we begin to describe more and more forms of non-normative desire and embodiment as “queer” – with the advent of the internet, queer communities also became digitised.

Dieses Mal geht es um weiche, um knubbelige und um gebeugte Knie, um weibliche Knie, aber auch um die Knie von Harry Potter, Willy Brandt und Alexander ...
