who owns the small stones...


the sound of water
filling a glass
water over stone
and small fish
gone at the touch of a shadow
you're here unexpectedly
your hair annoyed by sleep
painted toes chipped
on your belly:
foetal signatures
(in another room
your bed:
hieroglyphs of saliva
on a pillow)
you talk of blue boats
and juniper wood
yes and the scales of fish
the blood of fish
you say is pale
the curtains you made
rise fall
the window is becoming transparent
today we'll paint 4 walls
and carry an african mat
through invisible streets
Abstract image
