on a quest for belongingness
i became blind under the
shield of sunglasses
i really became blind
i did everything
i did whatever:
imitating words
imitating sentences
imitating movements
to belong to belong i
imitated
words sentences movements
for this purpose i
imitated people
being themselves
for this purpose i
was painting
identities on walls
and by the time i
became a mirror
became a reflection
became silent
didn‘t tell anyone
who i was
during this stage i
talked to people of all
societies
in order to figure out
what‘s behind them and that
i talked to strangers in order to
find the location of my
creation
this quest…
it‘s all about
belongingness
you feel me?
