Te onauti¹

Be te onauti
And fly.
Walking is for
Pathetic bipeds,
And swimming
Only half an option.

Men see one horizon
Where you always see two.

Perhaps that is why
fishermen lost and
unable to stomach
any more of the sea
feel fortunate to
catch you
so they may suck on your eyes.

Fish out of water: fly.
Fish, out of water, see two horizons.

¹Kiribati for flying fish
