Out there the aggressive night
swallows all warmth, all life,
animals are suffering
in silence, surrender,
mute and dumb
rain is falling noisily,
clapping on the windows,
falling deep into
tired souls
who want to flee,
but like limescale in a tub…
have hardened,
inside them the house of cards
is crumbling,
dreams are falling apart…
frozen in time,
a spider on the wall,
immobile, waiting…
the fly in her web,
resigned to its fate, forgotten
like the people behind the windows,
who have given up
exploring…
what’s out there…
