Real Fantasy Poem by Zyw Zywa

Real Fantasy



My own right started
underground, resisting
the parental authority
it clamped itself

Théir religious own right too
started underground, resisting
the established power
it clamped itself
and hangers-on

it fantasized
over later and practised
violence

so that I must remain silent
underground, powerless
I hold on
to understanding
what is not allowed
to be said

I fantasize
about the past and play football
without a ball
