I was born on dirt
surrounded by
four hungry women.

All I wanted
was to see them fed.
The women.

A star, one night
took notice
of my kind heart.

Without thinking much
it made me an effigy
of strength in luck.

You should have
seen me then,
arrow to the top!

You understand,
you watched
fascinated

my pale blue light.
The ground and sky
in awe and in love

right in the middle
of a fucking war,
absolutely high.
