Instead

by Stav Sadot

[ poetry - june 06 ]

Instead of counting clouds
and chasing skies and sky-like rivers

Instead of locking open windows
and opening locked doors

Instead of turning summer
into seven other seasons

Instead of city cities seas

Instead of Wednesday mornings

Instead of dark-blue light-blue yellow

Instead of words like
silver, hover, skies

Instead of throwing sand and sentences
and carrying wind of words

Instead of everything I know.
