Food and the other weird things

Someone's silence is faint,
Too simple, too transparent.

Bread for free, they say.
Water with a molecule of sadness.

For years, lonely,
Devastated,
Dehumanized

People would cross roads
Between two false flags,
And play chess
With falling stars.

We don't wish to be in their place,
We cut down our wishes,
A crowded planet,
Too many similar souls,
Too many checkpoints,
Too many bizarre songs.

The elevator
From abstract thinking
To the depth of reincarnations
Goes up and down

And rivers talk to us
Silently

Would you like to settle down?
Would you like to build a temple?
