Synopsis

Earth day: the canopy shot by the sun on the trajectory of the swifts. The era in which a sea dries up to sandstone. The war raging outside our windows.

These poems are contemporary witnesses of the light that has been around for four and a half billion years, contemporary witnesses of gravity that keeps the Earth in its orbit, witnesses of the smile in a suburban train that scurries across the faces between two stations.

Jan Röhnert's poetry also penetrates in his new poems the beauties and abysses of our inner and outer worlds in a highly sensual as well as deeply analyzing way that is unique in the German-language poetry of the present.

By Jan Röhnert the poetry volume "Wolkenformlen" appeared in the edition Faust.

»Poets must not be asked: Is there something new? Rather, have you discovered something old? When I read the poems of Jan Röhnert, I get plenty of answer to both. They are familiar with the old, in the long prehistory of this short genus with its rules, regulations and constraints, but they also always discover new, that is, they are permeable to the present and its decomposition of rules, regulations and constraints. I am always looking forward to the new poems by Jan Röhnert - not least because I am always curious which birds he has listened to this time when poeting." Michael Krüger
