The time of the city flowed through her ...
The overlapping shadows of the trees like a flock of birds
She wished for a gust of wind to shatter the city
Like the prajapati of the Vedas
Dismembered into pieces at the time of the world begun
And the whole city’ people comes looking for its body
These feathery fragments
To the river bank that day
To observe the holes, the stones and the crystals
All the dead life
Seen as treasures by the people on the shore
placing them carefully in glass cases
In each one lived a little angel
ghostly dwelling of the secret dead
A gasp or a prayer
The rusty rivers leave only a stain on the rubber shoes at last
The person hiding under the black umbrella will laugh
Laughing that she is destined to find something else to spell her absence.
