Missing Link Poem by RIC BASTASA

So there you are
The missing link of my life

I was having something
Blank in my mind

And things do not fit
Nothing fits to this “”it”

A square pig
In a hole,
A fish on a hill
A chicken on the sea
A snail in the city
A fan on the freezer

Me to nowhere
You somewhere

For a time I was walking
Without a direction
Without anything in my mind

Things simply do not fit
And there you are
Standing not looking also for
Something specific

And we found ourselves
We fit
We simply talk without bumps
In our throats
We simply enjoy each other’s company
You laugh at my jokes
And I like the way you talk

We fit, now we must live together
I am the thread to your needle’s eye

We fit, you and I
