All 28 seeds.
one more Italian arrived
why do we even learn Icelandic
we just need Italian classes
but now we are complete
15 to 24 people
in one month
there’s no such thing
as quiet afternoons
only a call center
set up at the kitchen table
the most rapidly growing
establishment in Iceland
•
the chill camp continued
with cultural visits
to the whales and Per[t]lan
an overdose of information
open mic comedy night
so painfully bad
even we couldn’t save it
for the camp’s last day
we finished the puzzle
it took all of us
a total of 6 months
and 1496 pieces
•
after 2 weeks
of constant sunshine
we decided to try
to swim in the ocean
waited for the hot pool to close
(please forgive, we’re volunteers)
to lay in the warm water
until there was none left
run into the ocean
I was the only one
who didn’t swim
the weakest Estonian I know
but my friends are awesome
•
a busy weekend
of two parties
steadily turning
my dessert recipes
into vegan equivalents
a coastal cleanup
the first of 30 this year
pulling out fish nets
packaging material
and the occasional shoe
refresh yourself
with croissants afterwards
•
being in the flow
make a detour
to the volcano
park next to
the newest hot dog stand
only if you’re willing
to share the pastries
with the rescue team
and pick up the trash
on your way to the hill
I’m not saying
it’s getting boring
but we went there
a week ago
only exciting things:
it’s raining lava
the moss is burning
and the floor is crunchy
couldn’t even cook
the marshmallows this time
I even had the sticks
fourth time is an abundance
•
on this island
the sun doesn’t care
about East and West
the sunrise and sunset
are always in the North
losing sense of time
hours of sleep
but gaining
the most beautiful sunsets
have you already understood
how much I love sunsets?
