Only the boss forgot his car when the factory closed

“Asking only workmans wages
I come looking for a job
But I get no offers
Just a come-on from the whores on seventh avenue
I do declare
There were times when I was so lonesome
I took some comfort there.”

(Bob Dylan in The boxer)

Where is the time when it really is winter?

“Jetzt, wo die Freunde,
Die Bäume, gestorben,
Jetzt, wo die Lieben,
Die Blumen, verdorben,
Stehen die Menschen
Kalt auf dem Schnee,
Und was sie treiben,
Macht mir nur weh.”

(J. Kerner in Im Winter)
Eindhoven (NL)

The windowless window

“The moon comes every night to peep
Through the window where I lie,
And I pretend to be asleep ;
But I watch the moon as it goes by,
And it never makes a sound.”

(J. Stephens in The white window)

Going up and down the stairs

“Die Trepp’ hinunter geschwungen
Komm’ ich in vollem Lauf,
Die Trepp’ empor gesprungen
Kommt er und fängt mich auf:
Und wo die Treppe so dunkel ist,
Haben wir vielmal uns geküßt,
Und Niemand hat’s gesehen.”

(E.F. Gruppe, no title)

This crane has been retired for a long time

Where can we find the crane that can lift the burden of this time?
