A Childhood
…as a child I proved the origins of night,
tigers danced on tapestry walls:
always these cats chasing me: teeth:
animals with hungry furs: jaws:
love: sorrow: lost: my gigantic fantasy
explores the hidden world of its own:
cartoons: forests: wells: skies:
a thriller in my blood:
ancestors of shame:
old skeletons:
once dressed in hides:
now psychology is wanted:
finally she eats flesh of poetry
and images desperately rush from the loneliest mind
The child, her expression and a sad future
