Rambling where there are no power lines

“I’ve roamed and rambled, and I’ve followed my footsteps
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
And all around me a voice was sounding
This land was made for you and me”

(Bob Dylan in This land is your land)

Autumn will also fall between the industrial buildings

“Dies ist ein Herbsttag, wie ich keinen sah!
Die Luft ist still, als atmete man kaum,
Und dennoch fallen raschelnd, fern und nah,
Die schönsten Früchte ab von jedem Baum. “

(C.F. Hebbel in Herbstbild)

August 1, 2021 Street Scenes

The alley that is happy with all the electricity

“An alley never concerns itself. An
alley always concerns the social
geometry that shapes it—a pompous

boulevard’s way of saying
alleys will gladly be whatever cities
want ‘em to be.”

(H. Ostrom in Alleys)

Overwhelming power

“Without delay, without haste
We would build the beginning and the end of this street.
We build the meaning:
A Church for all
And a job for each
Each man to his work.”

(T.S. Eliot in The Rock)

The fading-out of steel industry

“It’s bright in the heavens and the wheels are flying
Fame and honor never seem to fade
The fire’s gone out but the light is never dying
Who says I can’t get heavenly aid?”

(Bob Dylan in Ain’t talkin’)
