The Unreal Nowhere Man

Imagine
a human
with unremarkable face
who slides
like a shade on the wall—
no debts and no earnings,
no personal space,
no nothing,
no nothing at all;

who crawls to his place
to be safe and secure—or maybe not, who really cares—
who may not be uncertain
and cannot be sure
and owns no land living upstairs.

In contrast, he claims to have all those things above
in his possession.
But they're not for real, they're just pretend,
we can simply ignore this obsession.
