Engraved

Every afternoon into the crocodile lagoon
a sun-kissed scene, gilded trees, floating,
rekindling my dreams, paying homage to
sacred memories, renewing my promise
forever to cherish one special phrase

Wherever I may be, wherever I may go,
always keep the holy words as a chem
in my head, never reveal to anyone on
earth, safe against change, treasured
in the sweetest depths of my heart

Never to share with anyone alive, in-
creasing its value a hundredfold, finding
my strength in one beautiful - one shining
line - though the source is lost; I do not
care where it went or why it has left

The origin does not count - I made it mine
my shining talisman, engraved on my heart

When shines above the Earth twin suns

in a sandal, the other in flipflops, only one earring, too
anxious to stand still long enough to get hold of the other,
pressure and confusion mounting

Stopping every task to tackle another one halfdone also,
starting on an official text then realising I don’t know who
I am nor where I am – aha, a dead giveaway that I am no
longer part of this universe - where

An actor always knows at least one of these things, I feel
worms crawling in my eardrums, takes all my self-control
not to fish them out with a sharp knife, I hope allergy attack
over before I go irretrievably mad - and

Matterings

'All I want' she said' is to matter.'

'All I want' said the scientist 'is
to understand matter'.

'The problem of life' the philosopher said
'is figuring out what matters'

'The secret' the muse said 'to life
is figuring out what is to matter more
and to learn what matters less

The Lover said
'All that matters to me
is matters of the heart
and I did not matter to him enough.'

'What does it mean to matter
is an world of billions;
