Sunday, olives

The ladder positioned between me and the tree
tells a hundred stories 

of running away to hide in branches 
where only the imagination would find me 

scrawling a plan on torn pieces of paper 
pretending its animals skin 

that I am a queen from olden times 
fallen into the recent age by chance 

this is childhood, now older 
with the tree in my hands 

instead of me in hers 
picking its sons and daughters 

how much have you both grown! 

question on origin, once more

I have once asked earth
am I from you?
when I do not have dirt in my hair

it laughed,
all I could know is that
I don't not know for sure

where I descended from
an earth or a sky
or probably a bit of them both.

Drifting in the wrong waters

How many times, would I have had to die
because my ship drifted to where I didn't ask

tornado at sea,
I, am the difficult storm ahead

how many have to go, so I could feel
the wind as a brother

on my neck,
because my ship drifted to the wrong waters

like your life is of no value

You point at an empty frame I haven't hung yet
asking 
what would an empty womb use it for?

Banal

The fights you pick

using arms, extended, legs bent 
over things that cannot keep up the whole 
banal the verse and the firearms
