Only if I don't pay attention
I see my thoughts
reflected in the world
and myself as a full moon
in the light of mankind
with, here and there, some spots
of defects, blood
shrinkage and disability
and shadows of bragging
then I know myself so light
as if I were the sun
as if it were me
who makes the moons shine
and the seagulls scream out
the day over the canal
Only now that I pay attention
I see the moons of my life
we are old
my thoughts and I, my world
from the new to the old moon
Mind what you see
then you see your life
from the new to the old moon
