Formentera

 

Nacho hurt his head

Not here

Somewhere else

He hurt his body also

And his mind

Not here

Somewhere else

We waited

with a clinical smell

for him to come

from somewhere else

They brought him

through the sky

on wings that spun

He passed us by

on four wheels

sort of sleeping, and

a little late

He is ok now

that time has passed

In his body

and his mind

I can see

that other place

that other Island

from the top of

Our street.

 

 

Author's Note

Formentera is the smallest Balearic Island, I can see it from where I live on Ibiza

so, you sculpt in words also...the stone is more unforgiving, but not harder, don't you think
