Hope would be the worst
that slow poison that constantly torments
because it keeps you alive
Also the hell of the rest, unleashed
by the cleaners to whom I gave the keys
takes too long for me
Emotions are haunting around me
I run to the door
but the room stretches out
A man shouts:What do you want?
Laughing he blows away
Others start to whisper yellowish
I do need skates right now
I empty all the cupboards, heated
under the burning sun
so I have to undress
and know what I want
where I am
