It is a different world out there.
Where life is broken down into its elementary notion
To something very elementary, that it starts to get eerie.
Like something as simple as a piece of paper becomes atoms and molecules,
Out there, men become a labyrinth of monoliths,
Painted in a shade of skin and made of bones.
These labyrinths are often carried by trench-coats,
Accompanied by trousers and shoes.
Out there is filled with scattered food for the birds
Scattered by the rhythmic motion of a wrinkled hand
Out there is repleted with hours waiting by the window
For things that don’t exist, or choose not to exist.
A world filled with nothing, nothing at all.
A world so big, bigger than you can imagine.
It is quite intuitive, for nothing
Except nothingness exists in such large numbers.
