In Bundanon, novelist Delia Falconer asked me to recite by heart some Finnish poem.
Poetry is one of my blind spots. I just can't remember poems.
So I read random part of a book to let her hear some Finnish.
Later, I found out, it is easier to remember poem writen by myself.
Here is the second one I wrote.

Minua niin huolestuttaa
tuo tuleva ilmastonmuutos
Mitä sitten teen
kaikilla pitkillä alushousuillani?

(I'm so worried / about this coming climate change / What shall I then do / with all of my longlegged underpants?)
