Goldfish

Let us become parrots 
and feed on cashews 
of my nana's farm. 

Let us become the last 
sunshine of your village 
and kiss the same warmth 
on my coastline. 

We could become the 
small feet of our own 
childhood and run across 
every divide there is. 

Perhaps we can become 
blasphemous gods of 
two religions and have an
Illicit juicy affair. 

How about a validation 
machine for old men 
with daddy issues?
Maybe then, they can 
stop starting a war in 
their free time. 

I know you are somewhere 
and I am elsewhere, 
but let us pretend that we 
are two goldfishes in a bowl.

That goldfishes have a 
short memory and 
everytime we bump into 
each other-

The bubble we live in 
becomes a new illusion
to live by happily.
