trembles matter as made of echoes of an old explosion

and, as with light stretching, soul

tries, she opaque roosting.

Whether by war or love (echoes of war

weighing or love),

retains some soul behind the eyes.

that passed a minute ago

shouting obscenities, which left beer cans,

the woman who carries a fat dog,

are not strangers, but not make it to the scene.

Miro abstractions that left a hangover:

do not usually ask,

and there were in its path

things that look do not know who.
