Visual poems by hiromi suzuki

Dolly Star
"When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty, will I be rich
Here's what she said to me."

Doris Day sings in Que Sera Sera.

*

"I hope she'll be a fool — that's the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool."

Daisy tells these words to her little daughter in F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby.

*

We wish upon a shooting star.
I wonder what my desire is.
To be rich? To be happy? To be famous?

Now I know the meteor is a fireball as the dust of the universe.

I wish I were a dolly star.

~ hiromi suzuki
