I Am

[a poem]

I am Compost — consistent.

Dry, I shatter under pressure; wet, I shift to whom involves me.

Mutable.

I am a Flower — seasonal.

A growing green stem, flowery in color and beauty. I wither and die, to reborn (far away).

Beloved.

I am a Weed — wild.

They rip me out by my root, but I always return (stronger).

Hated.

I am a Tree — grounded.

Naked from prejudices, dressed with vibrant shreds, inhabited by sonorities, erected in solid layers.

Strength.

I am Rain — inconstant.

Evaporated water in the sky; returned to the Compost, to the Flower, to the Tree.

Food.

I am Life (inside death),

I am reborn and survived,

I am Present and Past.

I am. Here.
