Yellow pages

A submarine,
An ice-covered desert,
A coffee mug with a logo of a fictional rock band,
Two people walking hand in hand...

A quiet day in the outskirts
Of the capital city,
And someone who tries to lure us off
Our spiritual path,

As well as someone who manipulates the very idea of spirituality.

Who will stay in the 'yellow pages' section
By the day after tomorrow?

Extreme heat,
Then lack of central heating,
And maps of all kinds
Which include some new technical details,
New names in art
And you actually can teach an old bird
New seeds.

Yellow pages
Thrown into the wind,
Just like news
Adjusted to your pulse
And breath
And genome...

Yellow pages
With forgotten 'red book' stories
On a 'black Friday'.
