Ambivalence ​

​

The ambivalent lizard that got run over,

caught in the middle of the highway,

turned towards his solitude and thought

fuck that’s too far

So he turned towards his loved ones and thought,

fuck that’s too far too

​

And so he stayed there in the middle of the road,

and the road-gods were kind to him,

for a while.

​

One big truck was too high to hit him

a biker just managed to swerve by him

while cars swooshed by him at high speeds,

vvvvrrrrroooooommmm

​

vvvvrrrrroooooommmm.

​

And still the lizard could not make up his mind…

Feeling lonely and loved and the same time missed,

he thought he should return home

But which way?
