the firmament
- are you smiling already?
shows a primordial pattern
just see,
- I tend to believe what you say
the stars in the strong hour
observation is an exercise
for steady hearts, eyes
need more solid bodies
over this tiny valley
(I’m reading in your diary)
the moon is slipping unnoticed,
only roots-equipped beings know
what is going on
and where
flames and ice
the transit of a celestial body
fuel
from this perspective
it isn’t worth the trouble
- a domestic injury, at most
So, let’s take this chain of events
(contemplation is a pastime for respectable mademoiselle)
some parsimony is preferable, I guess
metamorphosis is what I’m most afraid of:
memories lend themselves to misinterpretations
easy targets – they become
easy targets
- for moths
