out of the blue



""

maybe the Morning Star



is just
the Moon and the Sun
kissing each other
Awake






maybe the Evening Star



is just
the Moon and the Sun
kissing each other
to Sleep


""

iridescence



""

if ever you'd feel lonely,
bring out that jar of soap and water
i'm sure you have at home.

fill the liquid with light,
let the spheres take a spin

stand beneath them, waiting.


you see, 
      
      
                    i 

        asked 

      them              
                             bubbles

         to


                  kiss you


      all

                      over


       upon their return

fallit

fall fall fall
faller
föll

en stjärna 
fall fall fall
faller
i min mun

jag svalde

mitt hjärta
fall fall fall
faller
föll

det värmde lätt

up north


""

at some point 
winter boots will look out of place even here

so
come on,
kick them off

- every body else is defrosting already,
and seem to have a blast!

happy tenant



""

time lives in the soles of my feet
travels at my speed
covers the distances needed

long live the day, the light
long live the night, the dreams
- the steps in between

hold on to the heat
let it spread, let it heal
all the way up, all the way out

long live the day the light
long live the night the dreams
- the steps in between

time lives in the soles of my feet
...laughing

after the dance


""

some mesmerizing movements later
a pearl of sweat 
travels
down 
my
forehead

peculiarly 
it decides to visit the corner of my right eye.

while i lean back into stillness, spine upright, 

the bead
continues
its
journey 
down
my
cheek
.
.
.

salty as it is, 
it might as well be a tear.

i don't mind,
and the eye is not offended.
everyone involved knows that it's just yet another expression of love.

what a relief!



""

at times
i climb the hill behind my house:
the high enough view
over the small enough city
reassures me time and again 
that i'm just as big a part of everything
as is everything else.

that is, merely visible, if at all.
