the world gets narrower for the pond-skater nowhere to hurry the falling leaves paint the wind christening… washing my face with snow full of tomtit’s tracks first day of the year on the school’s porch crow’s tracks calling a friend a man-to-man talk about weather disaster movie at the bottom of the screen tomorrow’s weather our footprints in heated dust until the first wind nine o’clock news for some reason I take again the dog’s leash off the hook my palm on a frosted window goes on a bus abandoned house… the rain washes the windows for Easter sky in the frame - changing the ad poster vanished from the ceiling the treasure island map … flat renovation = Translated by the ULITKA =
