CRAZY NEW WORLD

I wake up and find myself in a world that no longer seems the same today as it was yesterday.
A time when the question of how we are doing is still answered with superficial banter, even though we are standing in the midst of our ruins and do not know what will emerge from them.

Thoughts flow in that I don’t know if they are mine. Those that no longer resemble those of yesterday.
Feelings come in waves. As if carried by the tides.
The energy in me rises and falls again.

It is an experience of all seasons in one day.
All the forces of nature come into play.

The winds keep the spirit tirelessly in motion.
Ice melts and brings information to the surface.
Some stay, others disappear.
The earth trembles and shakes up thematic areas.
Volcanoes erupt, bringing my anger to the surface.
An anger about what has been simmering underground for so long.

Like a great cleansing that is taking place.

But who am I after that?
Where am I after that?

I am pushed from one square to the next like a chess piece.
But who is playing the game?
I wonder which player I am. I can’t recognize it.
The queen, the bishop or the pawn.

Is it mine, and I got confused on another board until yesterday?
Or am I getting lost right now?

The game is like walking a tightrope between longing and regret.
Knowing that you know nothing.

What a crazy world...
