Kuli Koli now on Corowned Works. Interview coming soon
Alienated
Like the demon in the closet,
we don’t’ know it’s there,
but…
it’s coming…
it’s coming for me,
it’s coming for you,
it’s coming for everyone.
Like a storm, it’s here,
I sit in the still,
in the eye of the storm,
tranquil.
We are glued to the tv,
the new rules and laws.
Terrified of the unknown.
Washing our hands without reason…
Oh, there are goats on our lawn!
We stop traveling,
the air is fresher
and we live behind
our closed doors like masks.
Outside the invisible
beast is tearing lives apart.
Has it gone?
We peer out of the windows
and doors like children
watching a snake or a rat.
The news says it’s gone,
it’s not gone, it’s gone!
We a virtual now,
like a sci-fi movie.
The aliens have left us
or have they left us alienated?
So, I take a walk on the hills, where nothing matters much at all. The only matters are of the elements, of water, air, fire, earth and space. Where I think, I matter.
