poetics

Lippert's poems make specific reference - partly in the title - to cities, streets, subway stops or cafes and "mischievously bring an unaffected freshness to contemporary poem, the plebeian motherhood of a shirt-sleeved bard." The lyricist Crauss recognizes the unexplained Sadness of his city poems a “defiant sense of home”. In addition, Lippert often takes up set pieces from the Russian language and chemical terms. Occasional DDR - reminiscences that particularly in his short stories , see, are neither nostalgic nor in the simple sense of "political", but always a mandatory part of the relevant text and expression of a realistic writing posture that "recite even a receipt from the supermarket artistic" can. Lippert, who before the fall of the Wall, took part in the Schwerin poetry seminars and later regularly in poetry slams during his time in Frankfurt , appears today on various reading stages in Berlin. He publishes in literary magazines and anthologies such as the Yearbook of Lyrik 2007 or Lyrik von Jetzt .
