What keeps us here? Islands in an ocean. What makes us leave? Islands in an ocean. What calls us back? Islands in an ocean. From islands, We become islands In a dangerous ocean Which has been named Continent by its rulers (even though its first people know it is really an island --GREAT TURTLE).As lonely islands We struggle To form atolls and archipelagos Which help us survive and live In this ocean which is a continent. But like the changing environment From which we emerge, Islands die, islands move, and islands are born.A year after I became an island on this oceanic continent, You moved to join another archipelago-- an archipelago that was more familiar to you because it was composed of islands-- young, male and Micronesian.I encouraged you to go, Knowing you’d feel safer there, Even though I did not want to be left-- young, female and Micronesian. |
