Aquarium

Freedom is confined in a lone house with sunken cobbles. The home is filled with synthetic ornaments and electric bubbles. I'd live in the secret waters and explore life thenceforth Rather than reeling in circles; I’m going back and forth. The tail is the love of his eyes; he made my orange-fin as decoration But never he heard the old merman’s tale and took it as his inspiration. Tomorrow is just nothing; I’m not looking forward to Except for the food he’ll give me that I could chew. In search of my purpose, I breathe underwater and found emptiness. As pure as waters around, there is no happiness. Lei Strauss 2021
