Reflections
(Mashed potato and beyond)
I think chosen
half a potato… to be
I think immersed
memories soaked
replaced vanished
sliced mashed
nurtured… blended
mixed
I think bungled
potatoes pampered
concealed
buried I think
in the earth… potatoes
I think in skillets,
potatoes ground
turned and tossed with emotion –
in furrows; with milk,
with the plough tears of the soul,
of life… shelter
for a painful
I think sleep…
potatoes
large
small
disfigured
round…
Translated from the Maltese by Claudia Gauci
