Maybe Poem by Eli Spivakovsky

Maybe



Maybe if i'd be born in the Northern Hemisphere, and I could see the Pleaides then I would always have had a friend to look up to. but then i'd be born in Wintertime and my friends would be dressed in coats when they came to see me for my birthday - if they remembered because I wouldn't remind them - and it would be cold without ever snowing. and I would curl up my poems like they were a diploma of my breathing and i would even walk down the frigid streets to you like that, holding these papers - for a moment - completely justified and full.
