Sufjan Stevens sang

Time stands still
while I sit by myself
rolling cigarettes backwards
Sufjan Stevens sings.
My only friends in the capital of freedom
are thoughts born
as wind blows
through me
I can smell the sea
No going back now
Steps calculated into stone
21 and nothing to show.
Waiting for the conveyor to start
mold me normal, mold me smart
Do the space and the woods still know who I am?
I can see myself back home
on the tram from the old
town
to the ghetto and beyond.

17th November
is that the day I failed to be?
Even so, I now am here.

'And this world is no place
For a mind or a thought
No it's not
Well that's been said before'
