three traumas at the same time
they dance together

it happened in one year
over there
where we always look
family, home, relationships
three clouds hung over me
like the veil of the Iron Curtain
during the hardest times
the first has been there since I was born
unaware, I continued this life stream
trying to change mentality for the better
but I managed to mingle merely medium results
straying away, shy, stupefied
with every approach I took
I escaped when the right time
knocked on my door
I didn’t hesitate at all
there I met many of them
they used every opportunity
to inflict this pain on me
and then he came closer
out of the blue, all in blue
telling me I slept
with the whole city
which were news to me
the best part (for him of course)
was that the nationalities
of my unlikely lovers
were the ones I despise the most
yet somehow, I was connected to them
involuntarily throughout life
that’s why it sounded
viciously weird
venomously wrong
voraciously way off
and then when he wasn’t there anymore
safe and sound in his own
home slippers
they struck
unfair war attack
of multiple enemies against me
against the laws of this country
law enforcement against me
for the great lie has been reinforced
without a single proof
to protect their professions as they were acceptable
yet their rules were
trump up
like a foreign policy based on lies
that’s how they worked and they still do
on the same level of indecency in their lease
