Levels

Though I started out writing
on level 3, where I found the abstractions

and the goaldriven atmosphere suitable
for the mathematical and philosophical

metrical verse I intended to write, I soon
started to have my sessions on level 1

together with people of my own kind,
freethinking individuals, whose high

ideals and constant sexual tensions
spurred me to write more passionately,

however, as time passed, I suddenly found
myself working on level 4, which I originally

thought would be the worst place, with all
the noise and different people walking in

and out, the disturbing eye contact, but still
I felt at home, the storyline became clearer,

and perhaps that will be where I finish
my epic.
