I Shoo Away the Blues
i change like the bacteria under my fingernails
daily
once i'm under the skin
i begin again
why?
it's because you
metamorphose in every second
the shift in your eyes
makes me realize
i know nothing
and enough
all
at the same time ...
so,
i shoo away these bleus
that blew upon me like
distinctly wrong winds
so that
the all
and
the suddenly
all of it all
sparked my mind
to life
again
and now my eyes
work
my jaw started stretching
and now
my mouth
is filled with
new words
for you
