Excessive Explosive Exposure

Patchwork City

By Moon DesertPublished 4 years ago Updated about a year ago 1 min read
Photo by the Author: patchwork windows on the building in my previous town

When I traipse through it

I see dissimilar realities

Woven from disparate

Lives

Which I happened to collect

In my head

In different order depending on the day

And the type of magic circulating

In the air

Then

I write

About environs imitating that

Real life

Yet there is nothing like that

Because each of us

Has a specific reality in its own minds

Converging with each other

On the same road

Where I usually play on

The fifth wheel

Whilst the rest are skilled

In closing and opening doors

Of their vehicles

Vigorously

Vibrating in the vicinity

Where my heart lies

Because this is my home now
