FIRST
IMPRESSIONS

Asvat
●
first
love
from
naïveté
to
the bondage of your love
soaring
me to cloud 'leventy-'leven,
until
you freed me
and
bonded me to my sorrow
● living
living in a suitcase
i live on fishan'chips
getting used to
not getting too used to people
●
medical
student
a
recorder
repeating
minuities
upon
a rosary
stuck
to one endless groove
● reminiscence
serene symphony
providing simple chords
for my medley of thoughts
fading into a harmony
dancing in my dreams
