Convergent Dichotomies (or A Country's Soul)

Convergent Dichotomies

(or A Country's Soul)

what is it

about the light, the color of

the sky, the ocean

the people's eyes, the

photography

what is it

about the economy, the smell

of politics, the mistrust

in the society's heart, the

melancholy

nothing

just landscape

waiting to be loved

or burned.

born world

a word in his mind kept sounding and rushing,
as repetition took him deep,
in inner landscapes,
until...
the moment his mouth spoke
loud
and clear,
he felt the warmth
of the newly
born,
world.
