The year was 1988, my family had moved from Southern California to East Berlin where my stepfather was accepted to teach at Humboldt University. This poem is a reflection on an East German supermarket. This is part of a larger memoir, Ghosts of East Berlin, some of which I have posted, including a complementary poem "A Supermarket in West Berlin." Photo Credit: My friend Kristina provided this photo of her mom as a child at the Wall in the 1960's or early 1970's. It captures so much of what I remember of both East and West Berlin.All Rights Reserved
