Where To Hide,
Where to hide?
In a bird cage,
Behind a curtain
In a silk bag,
Under an oak table,
Where to hide?
In a hollow path,
On a white boat,
In Nebraska
Or the bed of a mango,
Where to hide?
In a monkey skin,
There are many ideas
On a red star,
Sleeping all night?
Where to hide?
In the eyes of a friend,
In a barn fire,
In the straw of a crib
Behind pretty santons?
Where to hide?
The wine binds us,
Under the wooden posts,
In the mists of old
In icy winters,
Where to hide?
In a reread poem,
In the scent of a rose,
In the closet of the past
Under a zebra skin,
Where to hide?
Under the sirens of New York,
Under the Congo forest,
In the desert of Mojave,
In the blazing sky,
Where to hide?
In a Greek village,
In a blackened river,
On the psychiatrics couch?
In a children’s book,
Unfortunately, no one has an answer.
