My Double Deed
I have a my
I have an am an are
an is of you
within my flows
despite the fact that I
succumb
in need
have never ever seen you
As from afar
You know to lead
so many of my rows
and make me come
unfathomably close

For you
I have an am an are

For you
Just Take a Light
I got no tree
to comfort me
nor soil to grow on stronger
and no profound philosophy
No land to be
no fight
nor remedy
I'm just a bug
detoxed from drug
that can't keep quiet any longer

For S. Heaney
not even brothers
a grain of sand
regretted its existence
it would have felt hurt
if only it had grown nervs once
it would have cried
if only it had opened eyes once
it would have been alert
if only it had thought its mind once
it would have died
if only it had breathed a life once
if only once
all it could do was to be
and be marginal, minor, mean
amidst countless others
and not even seen
hence
take my hand
are you with me?
