What to do when you live in a zoo?
What to do when you live in a zoo?
This world is confusing for anyone. Can anyone define normal? Am I normal?
What is up is now down, what is wrong is now right, what's hot is now cold, what's in is now out, what was yes is now no... Wait a second, this is starting to sound like a Katy Perry tune and you know, I agree, finding unity, the "in sync" is very hard to find. Learning to find me in an upside down world is and has been my greatest challenge.
... As I continue to walk that desert plane most days are dry, all I do is thirst, wanting for just one sip. My every little bit of energy is gone. I am dehydrated. I find no water. Still I am trudging desperately, hanging on to a hope that there is some sort of existence out there. Food is hard to find, good food that will keep me going for one more day. Sometimes it almost does not exist. I am sucking on a thorny cactus that has some nourishment to send me a little further. But on and on all there is only desert. I can only see miles and miles of seemingly empty sandy tundra, an array of dunes, an oasis of nothingness. I drag myself through the thick sand, through the cold nights and the hot days. My skin is chafed from the handful of dirt that the wind likes to whip my way unexpectedly. A hot sun beats down on my neck and on my back. The desert, it seems relentlessly anxious to finally completely devour me; to be consumed and lost forever where no one had ever known that I was.
