mummified life

As i stand in disguise

My mummified life

Of whats real and me 

and whats not

The screaming of seagulls 

The footsteps of all those

Seen yet unseen

Life feels surreal

I am cold yet warm

Full yet hungry

But when i see those houses

Digged into the earth like that

With their colored wooden plates

And embroidered glass portals

Of balconies and a million colors

I feel a home 

Starting to rise in me

With silky flowers and the crown of trees

How strange

This new world will be

We heard the boats, the boats, the boats

And i hear the planes, the planes, the planes

And i will not hide from them

Not this life
