Go Home Now.

A hallucination
a trip
with an imaginary camera
looking out of a window
I see the sea at my side
a calm sea
a quiet sea
I jump in and I feel safe
yet afraid because
thinking about my strenght and the distance.

You watch me as
you watch a movie
of man who wants to cross
you have heared stories
you call out to me
and ask me
have you seen the beach before
or have you had visions of the beach.

To become a king
is by being erotic
not by massacre
although I was put in
a concentration camp when I was six
they said I would be cool
when I would be out of school.

I am a child
a man
and an old woman
in a camp which seems natural now
shouting for joy
as in searching for joy
at some point
enters a soldier
who tells us he is happy
to kill a stranger
to find me my joy.

I walk around the camp
I walk out
walk all night
tired
I hallucinate
a trip
with an imaginary camera
looking out of a window
I see the sea at my side
a calm sea
a quiet sea
I jump in and I feel safe
yet afraid because
thinking about my strength and the distance.
