Who am I? I am a free spirit, floating around the wild forest. I am a blood-thirsty demon, burning everything around me. My mind is at a constant race with all of existence, ranging from one extreme to another. Who am I? I wish I knew.

Homesick
I miss the rising sun—
Light on piercing pine tops
Seen from the open kitchen window
Sizzling of the frying pan
Drowned out by birdsong.
I miss the little wooden fence
(The one with the rusty latch)
Opening my way on a hunt
For fresh fruit of the forest
For today’s family dinner
And I miss the silent water
So still, so welcoming, so kind,
I miss the kindness on the faces
Of houses down the path
From my red-roofed home.
I’m homesick for this place
I have never seen
And never will.
