To understand the structure of this book, it is necessary to know that a first version of Three Years on the Orange Island was published in 2021. This first edition had a chronological structure set by year: Year 1, Year 2, and Year 3. For this second version of the book, the previous division by year was removed but the order of all previous fragments (they’re not really poems and the word ‘text’ grants an undesired vagueness) remains the same. However the reader should note that all fragments from Three Years on the Orange Island can be found on the left side, the even pages; whereas the fragments from Twice Over can be found on the right side, the odd pages. Thus, Twice Over is a re-written, re-experienced, re-lived version of Three Years on the Orange Island, therefore necessitating a side-by-side reading.
the orange island
I came to this island
I call it orange
although it is more blue and green
blue for the rivers and the ocean
blue for its clear waters
green for the forests and mountains
green for the countless trees
freedom, I came for it
freedom it gave me
to learn and experience
to keep going
to take life on
orange it is
because, here, the sun shines brighter
than anywhere else
because, here, I shined brighter
than anywhere else
orange for its warmth
orange for the sweet and sour moments
orange like in my memories
