Ringelnatz: Gedichte
Joachim Ringelnatz (1883 - 1924) did not led an easy life: in school laughed at because of his silly looks he later made his way as a sailor and had more than 30 jobs. For some time even homeless his performance in the Munich pub Simplicimus was the turning point of his life. As a cabaret artist, writer and painter he found the tribute he was looking for and a little income however only until the Nazis forbade him. His work of poetry offers an unaffected everyday language „no versified journalism but something very old-fashioned: poetry." (Theodor Heuß).
