Here vampirism may be perceived...

Haunting images of captivity...

A good and sensitive depiction...

Much better than the other one that...

As we all are human...

That's action... ()

I wonder...

When you're strange...

Ach, harmony, harmony...

Why don't we all set sail...

The languages seem to mix up...

A splendid...

This is very much to my liking ()

A story told...

Lee Ann!

Some very nice classical images there, Marius...

That day has come, Syd!

One reason...

Nature employed...

I absolutely agree with...

So true...

Romanian essence....

Part time love...

Real nice one, Marius...

Silly me...

Please explain to me...

Too many errors

The blockheads escape my comment...

I appreciate that, Marius...

Urban filth and ...

In through the open window...

I guess you must be a bit educated...

Hardly about football...

Definition of clair obscure from The Free Dictionary: ()

Thank you, Chris...

More compact...

I sense...

This poem is balanced...

Very visual poetry with a temperament...

This prose piece...

I thank God for the fact that one text may...

Important question, Chris.

Interesting biblical allusions...

It does feel good...

That worldly yellow star...

Compressed existential surrealism...

Let me welcome you to the site, too, and...

Cheers, Marius...

It's a pleasure...

Again; Marius, not really a Haiku...

As far as I know the Haiku set of rules...

To the above I need to add...

And now it seems...

And finally...

Now this really works...

Funny...

Irene certainly has a point and..

Containing exquisite, concrete images..

This poem has potential...

Lost patterns...

Doing the "Severed Head".... ()

Floyd at the flat...

Written with a sense of humor...

As a glimpse of intense youthful mourning - the absence...

Not bad, Irene, but...

Not bad, Irene, but...

Syd Barret...

Natures beauty and...

Irony in this poem...

Ode to a question...

Yes, Bogdan, ignorance...

Beautiful alliteration... ()

Love is God's intention...

Awaiting the miracle...

Peace in the valley.

There's musicality within this poem...

Chris, the responses on this one delights me!

Thanks a lot, Mike. You really hit the spot...

Thanks a lot for your response, Marius!

And.. ()

Marius is right regarding surrealism....

Bogdan!

The reason why I put this one on the list is...

Now, here's a bit of drama...

Yes, I know...

And..

Oops, misspelling -

Welcoming the new kids in town.

I lke this, many fine images and good rhytm...

One fine newcomer!

A dreamy sadness...

Luckily the laws have changed in Britain...

Really it's perfection that I fear, because...

Couldn't avoid....

This text is written in better english than the one I wanted revised...

Humanism?

With these additions...

...Sorry, but I don't really see...

whispers through our forests dense with fog and deep... ()

I find it hard to disagree...

Very good idea, but then again we have to deal with...

Looking forward...

I appreciate the imperative emotion you put forth here...

Me, I just love Pinocchio...

The magic...

Suggestion

Excuse me...

Nice writing with good rhytm and images, just...

Love is all there is...

Amigo, mankind is caught between collectivist states, like China...

I suggest, Daniel...

Sometimes we really...

A valid musicality in your poem here, Marius...

Opens up for...

Please...

A bit confusing...

Hopefully a candle will always remain lit...

Expressive yes...

One cutting example...

Maybe a bit too much...

This does not refer to race...

Please...

Musicality...

Ah, that's potential!

That part of spiritual existence... ()

A soft whisper...

Surreal, yet concrete...

Such a refined contribution... ()

Please don't let me be misunderstood!

Biography John Willy Kopperud

First years spent in various towns surrounding the Oslo fiord. Grew up in a suburb east of the city, both near to and withdrawn from my numerous peers. Significantly radicalized at the age of fourteen. Grew disappointed with the revolution and signed up for the magical mystery autumn 69. Radicalized once more. Dropped out once more. Fairly well educated during the 80's and 90's.
Poetry? Off and on, I'd say. Besides poems I have weitten both pop lyrics (plus lyrics for contemporary music)and short stories. What moves me? Imagination I guess. Imagination should not contradict everyday life (and the other way around.)
I must hold forth that good old Willie S. has quite a point when he gives fair warning regarding "The man who hath no music in himself."
Music? I have mentioned pop lyrics - to be more precise - most of these are connected to the singer/songwriter tradition. Concrete and melodious music. I have also been active in another musical area,
in the crossroad between music and noise. This is not academic sheet-music, it's rather built on improvisation and momentary exploration. Later on the product has been technically modified. Roar Borge My accomplice in the project "Fisk på Disc" available with the MP3 Album "School of fish'n'chips" through the net-distrubutor, TibProd. He has done the producing in his home studio on his own computer. The album is no. 53 in the companys catalogue and the address is : http://www.tibprod.com.
Ten tracks on the net for you to download. Be my guests!

My wife, Kristin, is responsible for some very nice poetic lyrics. For some of that material I have written
pop/singer-songwriter music.

Married to my life companion at the age of 33.One child. We live in a suburb some six kilometers from where I grew up.
Career: No big deal. Life: Good. Hardships: Yes
Happiness: Yes.
