Am I a pilgrim or a wayfarer 
in this sanctum or a sanatorium?  
Dear mom I was a prisoner for nine months 
in your safe waterlogged womb. 
But still I cannot swim in the deep seas. 
The thorny crown and the cross too heavy for me. 
I am only a puppet in the marionette 
and somebody draws me here and there. 
I am almost tired,  
please let it be a freehand 
and a freestyle race 
without any restrictions.
