Berlin /2

“If you’ve got no fear of being lost
you’ve got no need of being saved”

Berlin is huge and it’s easy to get lost
i was walking toward the brandenburg gate
and I found this statue of Goethe

are there statues of artists in New York?
presidents, mayors ,a bull but an artist?


Soon after I arrived at the brandenburg gate

last time I was here was in 2023 with The Rolling Stones tour
The gate is the same only I have changed

in 1988 or 1989 before the wall was torn down
bonnie burns and I travelled through checkpoint charlie
sang let my people go iin an empty park
and tried unsuccessfully to spend all the money
we were forced to change to enter east berlin
