From
my early earth years in the warm salty waters of the South Pacific,
Emerging
through the thick rainforest of equatorial mountains,
Sucked
into and dragged out of the dry heat of the deserts in The Lucky Country,
Dumped
by the waves of the Indian Ocean and retreating to the center.
Brazenly
navigating blue skies and sailing onto the shores
Of
Finland’s frozen archipelago.

Travelling
through the great unknown
Hear
what I’ve seen
See
what I’ve been
What’s
it like amongst the overgrown?
Let
me put this delicately,
or should I reveal the sight obscene?
Alien shores
Don’t know me no more
forest peeps
birds squeak
heart seeps
pebbles grind as the future unwinds
