Egipto
Egipto-
Why do I feel like I’m still in Egypt?-
In a dry land; I am a stranger looking for my purpose-
Am I still in Egypt?-
In a world filled with distractions-
Where being busy is the new human-
Like the levels of a pyramid-
What level is the one to success?
The top one?-
Or is that actually the beginning?-
Everything is upside down-
Distinctive perspective is a distraction-
If lost in a desert, would you drink any water that finds you?-
What lessons do I still have to learn?-
What don’t I see? Or am I choosing to stay blind?-
The Source is everywhere,
and nowhere at the very same time-
My thoughts, my beliefs, my programming-
Egypt is still a part of me-
where I learned to be of substance...
In a dry strange land-
