Pouring

Urn was carring the snow 
unmelted
like the soul of night.
It was a very strange winter
like araucaria puzzle.

Who was dragging the evergreens
over the chaste cliff ?
All the incogerent roots have broken
the placenta for new gods.
Millionaires ?

The marriage of basil at dusk 
with a paperweight, unleaving the road.
I was hearing the footsteps of dawn,
though sky was not listening to knocks.
