Baldanders

Borges said:

he is Baldanders

and thereupon takes the forms of a man,

of an oak tree,

of a sow,

of a fat sausage,

of a field of clover,

of dung,

of a flower,

of a blossoming branch,

of a mulberry bush,

of a silk tapestry,

of many other things and beings,

and then, once more,

of a man.

 

I say:

I am the Baldanders
