Malady

Sweet summer cherries
improves love together
[in] ad-lib deadlock.

Voting booth stitching
will help you to save
[on] quality meds and maidenhair.

Reach for it,
your compensatory holster,
[as] jet lovenest warned.
       - Schwanhild Pauls

Not much has been written about Mr. Pauls as he is often very difficult to contact due to his tendencies of communicating via hand-made postcards. Mr. Pauls’ poetry has been featured at several poetry readings and published in haute couture magazines in his native Switzerland. A collection of dozens of his hand-made postcards was compiled by Neo-Syriac Magazine in early 2006.
