the happy face

of a subway employee,

the days flying by sitting in a booth,

between the iron teeth of escalators:

what is a prison?

what is loneliness?

what is despair?

hunted legs,

the grinding asphalt, granite, marble… earth:

what is freedom?

a complete bum,

decomposing against the backdrop of people

relaxing in the park:

what is society?

somewhere children were forever silenced,

not having begged for bread:

what is this our word?

in a stranger the response

tour timid moans —

what is the basis for our word

and in whom do we sow

the seeds of words?
