Fishbowl

Look out
And around
We live in a fishbowl

The world is out there
But trapped
We are
In a tiny fishbowl

Isn't it amazing
How utterly how unsuited
You and I
Are
In the fishbowl

Yet in the fishbowl
In the water
We dwell
In the water
We met

Isn't it amazing
How queer
That we
So unsuited
Chance to meet
In the fishbowl

Trapped
Yet we met
So in the trap

Should there be
Gratitude for the
The knowing
The ties

Or hatred
Or
disdain

For the fishbowl
For the smallness
For the pettiness
Surrounding
Us

Perhaps
Both

Perhaps
None

Perhaps
Absolute neutrality

The fishbowl
Traps no longer

Let us leave the
Fishbowl

Let us
Thank the meeting

But

Let us
Hate the location

Perhaps.

Kel. 10 September 2006.
