the water tower

you have no
geographical instincts.
but you
try just to same to find
your way
from point a to point b,
without
the gps
or phone or map.
your heart says go left,
but your
brain says right.
sometimes you roll down
the window
to ask strangers,
where am I,
not physically, but
in a more existential way.
who am I,
you might ask too,
but this gets not response,
and they answer
by saying.
you're lost, aren't you?
or they say,
do you know where the water
tower is?
