Uproar

It is twilight and the crowds amass.
They scream for a light to show its body.
The light says: "NO! You do not deserve me!"
They cry and they moan. They hug each other.
The light stands before them - naked - for all.
It blinds the ignorant and fuels the engines.
They then scream together: "Long live the flame! Long live the shine!"
"I am the guide; I am the way, I am the one; it is me you shall obey!"

A voice rings out from amidst the dead.
The man is wearing but only a rag.
"I need no one. I am all pure. I need only my love to stand by my side. I need no one. I have it all.
The end is at hand. Drown in you blood you fools! Die right now!"
The love of his life stands beside him - radiant with pride.

A Beach Dance by Night

I saw this guy on the beach; he looked as though he had come for a jog.
He had his arms wide open and he was an airplane.
He was walking / jogging in a zig zag way.
First a walk; then a turn by about 90 degrees and then a jog.
After a while he would get tired and would stop.
He seemed eccentric, may be even insane.
I always kept a fair distance.
Luckily it was night and he could not see me.
What was hilarious was the fact that he kept disturbing couples - unintentionally.
Then he would jump on the spot; not as one does while skipping rope but rather, as a kid.
He would occasionally twirl on the spot, but run at the same time.
As if he was in a trance.
After a while a couple of girls passed him and they started laughing at him.
I believe he said: " Fokkhin' Fokhh Fokkhhh"
He seemed oblivious to his surroundings - admirable indeed.
Then I had to stop, because all of a sudden he stopped and was staring at the sea.
Hands in pocket.
Lazy types - but confident to the brim.
He jumped again and again, and laughed
He said: "Fokkhin' Fokkkhh Yewww"
He turned sharply and stared at himself in the eye and said:
"This is you!"
