Another new piece from Stains

Kama’aina
(child of the land)

Is this world
the real one,
she asked,
or is the world
in my dreams – the
world that
keeps me clear
of the thread
connecting me
to what remains
inside.
This world is
what you wish
it, I said,
and she gazed
at black set eye
out to the stars
and moon
in motion
across and ocean
of memory.
