the only thing that convinces me that I'm still sane
is that fact that i continue to question my sanity

Today I saw a shadow.
I asked him what the time was.
He told me to *******.

"I always pray to God
To give me more suffering
So i can talk to myself more"
Said a voice.
I think it came out of my mouth.

Some people are afraid of death.
Others of spiders.
Many fear extreme heat
Being trapped in a small box,
and having to think
of their shallow insides,
the mechanisms
which they disregarded for so long.
A transparent partition
Through which they can see
other oblivious, happy people.
Some fear this.
Of slowly running out of words
even as things become clearer
(A dramatic pause ensues)

Me? I'm just afraid of spiders..

what is tomorrow
but a photograph

of you, me and colours.

Although we are yet to decide
what is you
what is me

And who is colourful.

What's the difference between
swimming and drowning, you ask?
Well, we only swim sometimes..

spectral nonsense
last only a few centimeters.

After eight long years
we assemble again
with those old costumes
to play those old roles.
To complete the revolution.
But silly me,
I always forget to discount
the leap years..
