Je me suis embarquée
In solidarity with the world’s 69,000,000 refugees (’18)
“I have embarked
on a ship which dances and rolls from side to side and pitches and rocks.
My feet have forgotten
the Earth and its paths;
the supple waves
have taught me other cadences
More beautiful than
the rhythm of human songs
To live among you; had I a soul?”
-Jean de La Ville de Mirmont
