It is all the same to the sea,
which, unlike us, is imbued with the truth
that we travel from nowhere to nowhere,
investing ourselves in the journey,
trying it on like a costume
befitting the roles
we assume in the play…
Mariners and islanders
learn the axiom of the deep:
the life-bringer of archipelagoes
can also take…
The pods of clouds
parading through the air,
the galaxies of whales beneath the sea,
do they know why they're there?
Pelagos, archipelagos;
thalassa, naftis, karavi, nisia -
tentacles of the octopus
are entangled in my heart…
14.11.04
Pelagos, archipelagos...
