Die Umarmung

Some might remember the infamous google game. An ongoing online experiment of randomness. This time I googled the German word Umarmung, to be translated as embrace. I love 90s sepia kitsch.

Love Marriage

Stella McCartney Spring/Summer 2011 & Petar Petrov Spring/Summer 2011

Two households, both alike in dignity.
In fair Paris, where we lay our scene.
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny.
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes.
A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life.

A Single Man

A Single Man 2009

The notion of loss. The notion of sex. Somehow every scene seemed to touch my heart. And I am not afraid to admit my emotional surrender. We all feel we are in the need of a reason in life, a logic sense, a destination. And we tend to project this desire onto a thing called love. Somehow we all fail.

Current State Of Mind

Stills Beyoncé - Why Don't You Love Me

"Why don't you love me?
Tell me, baby, why don't you love me
When I make me so damn easy to love?
And why don't you need me?
Tell me, baby, why don't you need me
When I make me so damn easy to need?
I got beauty, I got class
I got style, and I got ass
And you don't even care to care"

American Gigolo

American Gigolo 1980

I fell in love with this movie from the very first minute. A young Richard Gere learning Swedish while hanging upside down a rail to work out. A young Richard Gere talking about love while strips of light texture his naked body.

This love is like dancing on roses. Roses made of steel with poisoned thorns.

Mariah Carey - My All

Don't take the lyrics too literally. But I think we all need more cheesyness in our lives. And if it is not love we can ask for, maybe it is tenderness.

My new favourite toy. I found it on Horsti's attic. So anyone interested in re-enacting the scene? Just kidding you know, well probably not...

Horst Riding The Pig II

It's been a while (have a look at Part I) but now we met again: The pig and the Horst. The swine is a bit older and bigger now (the question is which one?), but also our love has grown. The force of attraction has remained unchanged.

In Love And Naked

I want to lay my head on your stomach. I wanna hug you, feel your beard, your breath. I want to fall asleep beside you. Every night. Sometimes sweaty, sometimes drunk. Just to know that you are there.
