I don’t know what I could not see

I can answer only what you ask me

the hibiscus makes my eyes giddy

looking up at the sky reminds me

South of the country

red apples poison me

but when my feet graze the sweet grass

the ocean overpowers me

I feel

I am where I should be

at night I dream of flying over meadows

wooden homes are where solace finds me

humility anoints me

sweet home country

I am where I should be.
