Thinking is like putting together pieces of puzzle.

What has scattered and disintegrated tends to strive toward unity.

We enter doors, penetrate locks with keys

Lips with tongues

Lips in order to pass Semen to its target.

Fall into beds, arms of Women, Men, Lovers and into our Grave.

That feeling when you fall asleep, the feeling that you have done this before

The terror of looking into an empty grave, or down from a cliff

It never lies,

In swimming across this river

We are bound to reach ground

But the journey takes on many a changing of fish-skin...

Well, there are many interesting metaphors in this and the content is definitely thought provoking and that's always good.

I enjoyed the read very much.
