Tornado

have you ever wondered?
that you were born in the wrong time, the wrong place?
that you are not in the right place, and everything is jumbled
because your fate was mixed with someone else's?

have you ever thought
oh if only i had lived there, or been there, or if my parents worked there


i could have been her.


each little action, each detail
decides the outcome of your life

they are the breeze from butterfly wings
that create a tornado

the slight whispering thought
that became an obsession

so, i know all this.
but the question is.

how do you control this? this frightening thought?
each small decision could change your life.
each word, determine some aspect of you.
each glance could reveal something momumental

terrifying

just throw your hands up, and watch the world go by,
whether it encounters you or not.
that is determined by the temperate wind

-Pamplemousse
