Happy Birthday Heinrich Heine (13.12.1797): De Toys "ÜBERKRAFT (-HEINE HEFTIG-)" (2.5.1997)

"OVERPOWER (-HEINE HEAVY-)"... DÜSSELDORF (2.5.1997) & BERLIN (13.12.2009): G&GN-INSTITUT (OLD & NEW COLOGNE) @ http://poemie.jimdo.com/ ~ This is NO proper "poetryclip", just a spontaneous IRONICAL RECITAL trying to perform worst as possible!!! Why? WHY "WHY"??? WHO NEEDS POETS AT ALL? WE ALL WILL BE FORGOTTEN IN SOME YEARS WHEN THE ALIENS TRY TO HEAL OUR PLANET AS SOON AS HUMANS DIED OUT... In the year of his 200th birth anniversary i dedicated my 900th anniversary poem to HEINRICH HEINE who was born at 13th of December 1797. My poem was published online 1998-2011 in the former archives of the G&GN-INSTITUTE at the homepage of Wulle (in the clip i click there on "Tacheles" below the list of names, then go to "Tom Toys" without "de" and search for "ÜBERKRAFT") and belongs to a series of several poems that are dedicated to some people whose work i appreciate... The former complete series (meanwhile it is extended!) appears in my poetry-book "ÜBERWELTIGUNG" (= "OVERWORLDING", that sounds in german same like "overwhelming") that was published in winter 1999/2000 in the label "Vapet" (Bochum). But my publisher WOLFGANG SCHÄFER (who was well-known in the leftradical area for his magazine "MOLLI" which promoted social-critical "engaged" poetry) disappeared (!) before the selling even started, so nowadays almost nobody knows my second ISBN-book. But my very first "official" book (published 1993) titled "JeDaZeitBereit" (="at any time ready here") is still available in the label "Claus Richter Verlag" of my former Professor PETER RECH (art-therapist at the university of Cologne til 2008). In Berlin you can receive it (as well as other publications in my own "G&GN" label) in the bookshop "ARTIFICIUM" in the 2nd court of the famous "Hackesche Höfe": http://www.artificium.com THEY GOT ALSO AN ONLINE-SHOP: http://www.german-book.com/ = "Mailorder-Bookshop for almost 35 years for all German-language books in print, especially (but not only) humanities. Delivery mostly within 24 hours. Credit cards welcome. We speak German, English, French, Scandinavian (and have a basic knowledge of Berlin dialect)."
_______________________________________

"Hat Lyrik noch eine Funktion innerhalb der Realität unseres modernen Lebens? Wenn ja, welche? (...) Lyrik lädt uns ein zu der einfachsten und schwierigsten aller Begegnungen, der Begegnung mit uns selbst. (...) Daher ist die Selbstbegegnung des Lyrikers zugleich einmalig und Modell von Begegnung überhaupt: mit den andern, mit der Wirklichkeit. Unwiederbringlicher Augenblick, Zeit außer der Zeit. Im Gedicht ist er eingefroren, auftaubar. Wirklicher als die Wirklichkeit: ihr jeweils neu und anders realisierbarer Potentialis."
Hilde Domin: "WOZU LYRIK HEUTE? LYRIK UND GESELLSCHAFT" (1964)
