Surreal

Surreal!

A sound that in the morning penetrates from my ears deep into my brain suddenly falls silent as soon as my eyes meet the screen of my phone. For a moment I lose all sense of where I am in this world. While I try to come to myself, the gravity of the black hole that opens in the middle of my bed devours me. then an invisible, magical force tears me out and sets me down in the middle of the street. The morning is so early that the stars still shine in the dark sky!

With the raindrops I suddenly plunge into the depth, down into an underground in which countless people are trapped in moving cages. The way out leads to the other end of the city. When I finally leave the tunnel, the morning is still struggling to let go of the night. A few steps further I discover the sun, which hangs on a building like a lost picture. Its light is so weak that it cannot even illuminate itself.

The hands of the clock move faster than my steps. I hurry toward the river. My eyes dive into the water and land gently on the clouds. Beyond the river a structure rises, from whose rear windows streams of light break forth. They rush toward me, envelop me and draw me into themselves.

I open my backpack, take out the laptop and check my appointments for today. When I look back, I notice that my fantasies have been left lying in the backpack next to the house key.
