in the fog


by anonymous






i came to the city to find a friend
but my search would never end
eyeballs flickered past me like raindrops off tin cans
i hoped to hear hello but heard the man

the man with his commands
as endless as sahara’s sands
do this, do that, do nothing at all
answer me when i call

i wish a fog would cover me
so i would finally be free
i would stand in a doorway and listen to the rain
and start my dreams all over again

here in tehran it's rainy and foggy and all... and just an hour ago i stood in the doorway to the rooftop and watched the raindrops soaking all buildings and trees and birds... the dried bread crumbs i put there were all gone in no time... everything felt so fine except the voice of this man (or woman?) in my head commanding me to do this and that... :)
thank you, timmy for all your beautiful posts...
stay safe, my dear friend!
