Vista previa
Hermit crabs and cowry shells
Crush beneath his feet as he comes towards you
He´s waving at you
Lift him up to see what you can see
He begins his focusing
He´s aiming at you
And now he has cutaways from memories
And close-ups of anything that
He has seen or even dreamed
And now he´s finished focusing
He´s imagining lightning
Striking sea sickness
Away from here
Look who´s laughing now that you´ve wasted
How many years and you´ve barely even tasted
Anything remotely close to
Everything you´ve boasted about
Look who´s crying now
Driftwood floats, after years of erosion
Incoming tide touches roots to expose them,
Quicksand steals my shoe,
Clouds bring the f-stop blues
Look who´s laughing now that you´ve wasted
How many years and you´ve barely even tasted
Anything remotely close to
Everything you´ve boasted about
Look who´s crying now
