someone else
it was only the leaves swirling in the wind that had color then
the rest was a mirage - objects with no clear shapes, colors or names
dream is not reality
and reality is not a dream
why chase one when you have another and vice versa
why someone else's cup of tea always tastes better
why the color of my eyes changes after each rain and never gets back to its original
I've sinned

last summer dance
here I am
my bare feet scuffle leaves on cold evening grounds
westerly wind curls eyelashes and tickles the back of my neck
I can hear the fox nearby
and
I am finally ready for it
me and the other half of my shadow will dance to celebrate the secrets and sorrows of this grand summer
I wish that all the waters would stop flowing for that moment filled with stubborn grace

now
'awareness is the state or ability to perceive, to feel, or to be conscious of events, objects or sensory patterns. In this level of consciousness, sense data can be confirmed by an observer without necessarily implying understanding...'
(it is said so)
I think now I really know what awareness is.
shadow
when I was 15, my best friend was 18.
we sat in a big dark field of a strange foreign country and talked. she was saying then that materialistic things are meaningless. I remember strongly opposing her idea.
today I look around and count the items that I own.
tomorrow I'll give half of them away.
the day after I'll forget about them.
from then on my shadow will be much lighter.

the little girl is extremely happy.
colorful hair bands and a straw hat.
tiny toes dipped in a warm sea water.

leaving
I'll crave for you when hitting the rocks with my bare feet under Ionian sun.
I'll drink warm night's rain instead.
It'll wash my dry throat while I'm in the far land...

'summer stands still
as tiny as a bird
with colored chest
on the edge of the forest'
a poor translation of an excerpt by Aldona Gustas
I found two big bright stars in my handbag this morning (I think it was Gemma and Alkaid). I wonder who fished them out from deep waters of the river when pine trees swayed their tall heads in evening's breeze...

...when the fox disappeared into the dark and left us two alone you said that we should try be honest with our own feelings.
I said nothing.
the clouds above the river looked like the ones by Dali.
purple

yellow
very slim and very long.
I watched the clouds and said nothing.
white soft mist floated above the dark waters slowly swaying. birds sang mesmerizing lullabies right above us. the air was thick. just before the

I wanted to ask you whether your body was still connected to your mind. mine wasn't.
that single motionless moment I didn't want to be a bird anymore.
but you still waited for me to say something.

presents from gods
...and after that Gods would sit in their thrones up in the trees, under a river float, inside the humming birds, on the edge of the cliff or right next to you and sip silky high mountain oolongs from see through singing cups.
their job is done.
things taste different now.

she silently tiptoes behind me when my eyes are fixed on rippled reflections of dark skies.
I wonder if it's the water or the clouds that move... or maybe me. or perhaps all together but in different directions.
she peeks at me briefly when passing but hesitates to stop by.
in a split second she's crossing the river via a bridge.
instinctively I disappear into the ripples.
now we are one.
