Life Is Tunnel Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Life is a cylinder

Have you looked in the eye?
(Pupil, its tunnel)
Deep and long cylinder

What about light,
When coming through hole,
(Of ceiling, in a wall)
Cylinder

Have you ever,
(In a desert)
Gone to a water well,
Seen water at bottom,
(With soft waves)
Cylinder

Look around
The light pods,
Tree trunks,
Your fingers,
Cylinder
Everything’s cylinder
Not always the perfect
Cylinder’s cylinder

Therefore life’s cylinder
Head to toe
Birth to death
Not perfect
Cylinder
