We are alive

I watched sunflowers blossom on their foreheads
They watched my hands release a fish
We all watched the fish fly in the air

We undid the braided hair of our dreams
We made earrings of the trumpet melodies

We let the hair dance
We let the sunflowers dance
And the dimples
on the face of the fish
danced

They whispered to me: "write"
And I wrote

    I saw Iggy Pop live twenty years ago. It was amazing!
