Waterbody

Saban Ramadani
Waterbody
waterbody travels across countries in a hold of another,
Carried out to safety while the liquid waves slam inside
Seats taken by other bodies, where to sit
Swollen ankles, if only I could lift them up
Five days the bus points north
Arrive to the terminal, another bus.
This performance asks does becoming relatable to the environment needed to survive bring happiness. How much more do we have to try. Relatability serves one from the two, which one is new?
