for a single word

The scene is a cliche
But the cliche is a reality

-

The desire to know
what it is that affects me

-

Ich warte immer nur
auf ein Wort
Wenn das wort gesagt ist
ist es mir schon genug

[I always wait
just for a single word
When the word has been said
that is good enough]

-

When the music and the
scratches are part of the
same thing

—Peter Schmidt, selections from The Thoughts Behind The Thoughts (Mindmade Books, 2012)
