Knowing nothing
Over stimulated
By all the people
And noises
And signs
Nothing to me but a shimmer
Above a deep reality
Even Deeper if I
Could live in it and see
Even deeper if I
Could be in it and
Truly perceive
But still deep as just a dream
And giving depth to this life
On the other side of the world
I saw the crowded streets
In the picture you handed me
Deep familiarity
Surprised me
Tumbled in my mind
With scents and sounds
Smiles and brushes
Against my shoulder
As a thousand unfamiliar
And so far from understood
Faces passed
I remember feeling lost
Even on the right path
Not just different sights
A different world
All reduced to forms
When listening and reading
Mean nothing anymore
Vivid and Pure
With sturdy
Untraceable roots
Deep into my memory
Deep into my past
But only a shimmer
That didn't last
