the famed recluse suddenly opens the shutter just to peek out at the world stinking of bleach you’d better have a sharp nose if you are blind if you can’t distinguish between black and white your only crutch is filling up your stomach to get some warmth at least deep down inside the illusion of life sighted are those who crack its invisible meaning they hit the target even though they might not really mean it (so) trigger-happy never batting an eyelid never thinking twice the blind ones touch anything smelling nice always reaching out for some sense do you need to keep rolling the dice (blind)? in the end you are doomed to choke with carbon monoxide don’t take offense where is your mind? gentleman it’s high time for you to decide

icicle
A blessing in disguise There’s enough salt in a salt shaker To make it exactly twice Excess carbon dioxide In the air Snow on my teeth A phrase stood there Frozen on the tip of my tongue Kept it to myself Nobody got it No light For the rest of the day For it’s winter Some more Nightmares Restless sleep Then spring, summer, Fall, winter... And spring (Back to life)

Fight
How come Your head comes off Sneaky little smile On your face Calling me back Don’t get into a flap Caught into a trap Your savior behind Pushing you back How come

gray brittle phrases where's my osteopath fed up with thoughts and hypotheses with my soaked shoes with my own self forever standing out how tall are you, you brat countryside otherwise otherside misery of shallow waters overused leitmotifs simplistic mottos approximation when it comes to numbers nostalgia when i have to deal with childhood photos casuistic morals opportunist goals the vigour of distrust whenever i think of social distancing or social media the concept of not being involved similar to not being alive yet it's better than being dead that's my life
