waiting for the wind to come

waiting for the wind to come

will it be the east wind
the west wind ?
will it be the north wind
the south wind ?
will it be the wind that blows ahead
or behind ?

how absurd it is to trust the fate of a country
and one's own fate
on the vagaries of the 'wind'

Nostalgia

When I was a boy
Nostalgia was a tiny stamp
I was at this end
My mother at that

When I grew up
Nostalgia was a slim steamer ticket
I was at this end
My bride at that


Years later
Nostalgia was a squatty tomb
I was out
My mother was in


But now
Nostalgia is a shallow strait
I am at this shore
The mainland is at that
