What are you? Who are you?

Fixed object in space - am I ?

I wonder, a thing to be considered

as round or soft, or swollen

in the river, drifting up and down

with the tide, edging along the beach

and the mudflats.

You are my universe:
the way the stars are structured.

I catch glimpses of myself
through colours in the air
as you light up the dark
of rainy weather
and all that gathers there.

Without a Body

Fear surrounds the body

         Of the Other

                 And of me.

I’ve lost myself

         When my body

                  Is not my own,

                  Does not make sense.

Direction changes

         Up or down

                  Or moving forward.

Who drives

This breath-like machine?

          Loving me or him

                   Or nobody

                   Or something else

                                Alien

                                     Other

                                     Unknown.
