Oli’s Dream

with Jaroslaw Kapuscinski

I am not her

I am another
star starling darling starfish

another kind

kin to him
kindling
kindred

O do not dread me, dear one
dear
reader

I am so near
dear
sailor

(salty as your skin)

Sailor, he’s
Sailor, she’s
the sea flooding in,

someone other

and the same,

something

like music
or words
