Writing
You may write with a pencil, preferably chemical one.
You can twig either on wet sand
or new concrete.
It might be ink or watercolor
on rice paper.
And you can just pitchfork on the water.
In fact, my sweet heart, it does not matter what and on what you may write.
It is important what you think about at this very moment, what you feel: love or hate;
you visualize or just imagine.
Empty things will burn, crumble to dust,
they will not leave a trace or memory.
And filled with meaning, with love,
with a kiss of that gold engraved on the tablets of the invisible,
even if you write everything with a pitchfork on the water in a puddle
or this slow-moving river.
Such manuscripts do not burn in flames
and do not drown in water.
