I am a barbarian
walking as a barbarian
building walls around you
forming rituals in your honor
.
herds are running free
somewhere
and ocean valleys are being pushed
to the ceiling
;
it is because I cannot see you
that I search for you
.
now it is
I wait for you to speak
mesmerized by the slowness of the fans
wobbling rhythmically round the axis
,
did it just become brighter?
.
I'll have another drink
but still you stay
hmm, I better watch out
wipe the smug look away
or I'll regret it in the morning
.
and again it is different
again hands connect
,
how is it
such a small change
can make such a big difference
