Stationary Poem by Uljana Wolf

Stationary



what is a domicile? a domicile is a star-

crossed ten of clubs. what is a crossing?



in the flubbed dialect of these forests

a crossing is the word tree. and why



do homelands play cards in the air? no one

ever saw the homelands go home. a tree



in the forest of neighbouring languages

is a club in this suit. out of its wood



someone makes crosses on a map.

the countries fill in their domicile and



put the stationery back into its pencil

case. what is stationary? put it back.



with nelly sachs
