Both Eyes Open
i am looking around me
with both eyes open
looking so strange
how did i become –
the person i now am
no obvious pointers
just a build up of sand
sediment that has gathered
sediment that has become land
those sands of time
those walls we climb
longing with my inside
yet only seeing the outside
James Garratt
