I think, 'How we accept death!'
I don't mean
in
ourselves or
friends, but in
general. Strange, monumentally strange,
how one minute someone is here,
then he's not.

And we read it, and think
it's not about ourselves.

The World

I can't believe we all walk
around sleepwalking
with our eyes blindfolded
to the position of the World,
absurdly placed in space;
crammed between nothingness,
we walk on a curve.
And where's it going?

And yet we our Saturdays,
Summers, love, and ice cream
are all here. Everything is
only here.
Is my room in space?
