Is only his wondering
in the clouds
In the air is very fine
Yet with his feet on the
ground is good too

The typed poem balances wonder against groundedness, while the handwritten note below shifts abruptly toward island and disaster imagery.
The upper poem is simple and declarative: man belongs both to clouds and to ground. The handwritten `Molokai` and `Tsunami Wave` disturb that calm with a more immediate, geographic threat. Together they feel like two states of attention on one page: reflective altitude above, sudden worldly force below.
