(Netherlands, 1970) is a poet, performer and writer. He has written almost twenty volumes of poetry and his work can be found in public, specifically in the streets of Utrecht. Between 2009 and 2011 he served as poet laureate of Utrecht. He has always been closely associated with literary events and festivals in that city, including the Night of Poetry, and participates in a foundation that writes poems for the funerals of people who have no family. Heytze won the 2008 C.C.S. Crone Prize, the literary prize of the City of Utrecht, for his oeuvre, as well as the 2016 Maartenspenning cultural distinction award of the same city. He writes for various Dutch publications as a columnist and journalist.

(1984) pretends to be a singer-songwriter, composer and multi-instrumentalist. All these talents are really in service of something else, which can't easily be defined by words: the quest for sound. Borger is a musician who paints with words and music. As a musician he feels at home in literature, including as regular accompanist to the poet Ingmar Heytze and member of the band Asfaltfeeën. As a librettist and composer his roots lie in Americana; his creative blueprint includes Ry Cooder and Gillian Welch as well as Steinbeck and Robert M. Pirsig. With narrative songs and instrumental miniatures on electric guitar, Borger creates a uniquely colourful world that passes through your mind like a film. He also put out two well-received solo records. The title track of his debut was named "song of the year" (2011) by 3voor12 Utrecht. Zwart Glimmend Chroom (Blackly Glinting Chrome), an album by Asfaltfeeën, was released by Excelsior Recordings in 2021. Borger is currently working on a wholly instrumental album.
