FULL MOON ON TOP OF A CHAMPAGNE PALM'S TIP

a person lost in the forest
to find his way back need to
stop walking for a while,

he must think,
and proceed to his theories
of home again,

if it doesn't work,
he shall try all other beliefs
like removing his shirt
and putting it on
reverse,

if it still does not work,
he must begin to look
at the sun, and if the night
comes, to see
the moon,
and the stars,

when the morning comes,
and he is still in that forest,
still lost,
he must try
other ways, chant,
experiment,
and keep his
options open,

or he can just wait
till death

when he turns into
a soul

a bird in the sky
an atom

and sure, back to dust
where all the
tiniest particles

may with all possibility
can still find its way
back home

but then, with this
form,
where is home?
what is home?

all those who
are still there
must have forgotten
and could not
recognize you anymore.
