I'm gonna try to stay right here
in this poem of steadiness
easy and wavy transitioning between one point and the other without announcing it,
in a phrase like remembering
no mentioning
no omitting anything
on this river of controlling issues
over night and during the day
I will try to sing this song and describing every note
I will stay right here
on a cue of constant vibration
pedaling on my childish sea
slowly honoring the maturity of the world
not mine
not yours
then little by little and in faithful ways
I'm gonna stick to something
to a believe and to a darling name
I will try to do the trying thing that at some point we all try at least once
and while my step trip on this cosmic sheet during my shadow solo
I will remain here
by mistakes and errors
with a survivor tale
my name will remain here
casually and humbly singing always singing as when my mother was giving birth of me.
