The ego calling – again
If I could crawl into your head and take a walk around
for just a few short minutes
I do not doubt for a second that I would regret it
for life
Stifled
and suffocated by the scenes and experiences you have lived and continue to live
Even though I would have been for a shorter than short-lived period
in the murky depths of your thoughts
briefly
ephemerally
non-bindingly
I would not even come close to the sensory
cerebral
emotional
intellectual
physical
psychological
psycho-somatic
life you have lived
the feelings you have felt
the hands you’ve been dealt
Perhaps it is indeed just my ego
egging me on to believe
that doing such a thing would be the ultimate act of
solidarity
A generous gesture of humanity
and empathy
Am I completely kidding myself?
You tell me.
