Instead of that I became a taxi-driver and a GCA, a geriatric care assistant. But in spite of that I organized the third OFFLYRIK FESTIVAL in 2017 where I presented some subcultural stars of the poetry scene." Tom de Toys, April 2022 @ LyrikLEBT.de "In Berlin it is easy to find a location that presents you without being published by an established editor or having won a literature prize. By that, many unknown poets live in a permanent live-act-exchange of their works and ideas that provokes an intense atmosphere and creative lifestyle of subcultural processes. In opposite to that it is difficult to discover a self-made reading in Düsseldorf because most literature events are presented by a small network of official institutions that promote mostly well-known authors." Tom de Toys, April 2022 @ LyrikLEBT.de "Our way of writing is open to experimental and anti-poetical methods, free from conservative rules and values. We like to surprise ourselves with our inspiration." Tom de Toys, April 2022 @ LyrikLEBT.de Genre Learning
