Dan K. Sigurd is the most famous Mauerpark poet. Sure, by now there are quite a few of them, but no one else has made it into pictures of the East Side Gallery, without ever actually sitting in front of the Berlin wall. His verses are now hanging above sofas and beds all over the world and have even been tattooed on legs and other body parts.

For years now, Dan has been sitting in the Mauerpark in Berlin where patrons and passers-by give him three words which he uses to compose spontaneous poems. This book is a collection of his best lines. Furthermore it tells tales from the everyday life of an artist in Berlin and is therefore an authentic time capsule and an ode to free art.
