I'm on vacation

Leaving the knots back home, I hope.

Craving a tender coconut milkshake,

I'm off.

3 hours of travel

for someone who hates it.

Smiling stiffly in the selfies

taken right in front

of the crowded airport terminal.

Still, I am leaving.

To the glittering waters

where the sea salt doesn't mingle

and duckweed floats along, solemnly.

To the narrow streets, 

with expensive art cafès,

smells of freshly baked bread

and brightly coloured doors. 

To the temples

with their shiny lamps,

sweaty people and their anchored gods.

To somewhere,

someplace,

anywhere but home.

I'm going. I'm gone.
