The Siren of the Tower Block



Today, wandering through Freiburg im Breisgau, I saw her for the first time.

In one of the tower blocks that was no longer submerged in the North Sea.

Her gaze penetrated me deeply and delved into my person in a number of different ways. Some of these were really quite pleasurable, some of them were extremely unpleasant.

The way she spoke, telepathically. The way my head read her words.

"You are my little baby. Come to me. I'll take care of you. I won't let anyone hurt you. You have always looked for something of me in the world. And now you have found me. Here I am, waiting for you. I have waited for so long for you to arrive. Come to me. I sense a great sadness within you. Only I have the power to alleviate it. Come to me. I will protect you. I will nurture you. I will give you all the love your mother never gave you. Come to me. Do not be afraid."
