 The Book of Possibilities |
The city is a deaf & dumb beast to whom I am nothing -
A tiny parasite clinging at the well of a root of a hair
Why should I be afraid?
There is no fear until someone is afraid
The city is not fearsome
It is nothing but a featureless host
Its true face can never be seen
Never fully grasped
We are the blind men groping for elephantine truth
What use is a single pore or freckle in visualizing the whole?
The city is not fearsome
There is no fear until someone is afraid
The air is cold
The people are afraid
The traffic lights repeat in mindless sequence
Red to green to amber
The people are afraid
The city is nothing
