I drew a burning castle
I said to her
‘No idea what’s the meaning of a burning castle’
She replied
Sometime you will know
Sometime is now
What that stroke did to me
Is like a burning and pillaging
Sometimes you will see
I see ...
Now I’ll see what?
That all is better now?
Sometimes you will heal
Are you joking?
Fine, some new places are opened now
but the burning hurt badly
Sometimes the question echoes
And the answer goes walk-about
Corinne Othenin-Girard, 2017
