I worked hard

on this vessel

~

it is still floating

adrift

with the current

~

towards the sunset

away from its rise

~

a deeper sea

is what I feel

Breaking point

or not

~

that is the question

By now

you can say

we stare at it

~

in disbelieve

~

one of those stares

where you forget

what it is

to see

You know

how you can tell

that we

as humans

have no clue

what this world

is all about

~

we often follow

like sheep

3 or 4 shepherds

that know

how to walk upright

and command

~

it probably takes

an other 10000 years

before we all

can think

and graze

for ourselves

Some people

see a new future

ahead

~

with an obvious

dead end

in sight

~

as if your future

is no more

than your past

in hindsight

On day

we fall

awake

~

and see

a different world

On our way

towards our need

~

we get distracted

by all the lushness

we see

~

and only later

do we drink

from the well

in the valley

where we linger

the water

that we need

The patterns I see

are forming letters

~

the words are there

but I need more distance

~

for the sentence

I need

to turn away

~

and to understand

I have to wait

till I close my eyes
