Like a child upon a snail
a purple fly rides a nail
Like a house without a roof
why you always seek a proof?
Like a sea full of pines
A dream unfold, no need of lies
Like the eyes of a dead fish
the snake got its wish
Like the tail of a smelly rat
the rabbit ate magician’s hat
Like a heaven without a handle
a strange world under heavy mantle
Like a cloud drop from the sky
a beast wears a velvet tie
The storm of wonders is nearby
But
you still have your face
as blank as empty space
bound to earth sterile mind
secure and tight
alas,
full of stage fright …
Maria Rodopoulou
