die Prognose
ich doese in der Sonne
und das Mitleid
hat mit der Begeisterung und dem Kutter
wir sind besorgt
und der Korbe wird nicht auftauen
das Geraeusch is schlaefrig
hoeflich
und auf die Schulter klopft ein Hand
neugierig und wissbegierig
der Erfolg hat keines Talent
nur die Disziplin
und meine Wortgewandtheit ist wagemutig
ehrlich nicht
ich habe den Verstand verlieren
Read the rest of the poem Show less
und mein Herz
macht Karriere und besitzt die Lernbereitschaft
vieleicht habe ich vermasselt
misslangte
ich achte niemand
und die Umwelt wird verschmutzt
nie sauber
das Polareis hat sich verschlechtern
und wir sparen kein Energie
die Oeffentlichkeit is bedeutungslos
ich kein die Spur nicht
finden
under das Netz verlagert die Bibliothek
und ich analysiere die Analyse

on die Prognose from @Race_9togo
