burst point the size of a vein
splashes on the white city

hush hush sh sh she she
be quiet be quiet be quizzz

the beetle sharpens its leg
with its noise nois zzz
cars ars ars rrrs sss

she leaves me in a noisy taxi
cutting the equally noisy city in half

half for sound
half for quiet

[іd sign
inside my body]
[inside my stomach the butterflies have
finished the interception plan]

sand castles on the water
water castles on the sand

i say that we will never see each other again
im silent

you are my favorite footprint in the sand
іm the tide

No matter where our life begins and no matter what happens, our own choice awaits us in the finale.

I came home from the street on a black morning and didn’t come back

***

1

an old raven brought me eyes

but not sight

2

purposefully torn silence of a kitten

I tremble like a mouse kissing claws

carrots in the family garden continue to grow on the hungry corpse of my buried grandmother

3

endless autumn

I hear the crunch of snowflakes, bones

endless autumn

4

mom has no one

not even me

trees peer into the windows

of a nursing home

5

grief stricken violins

you shove lost sounds into my drawer

what symbol did you use to designate a kiss

this is such important as asphyxia

a tree enters a damp moldy house

I once called you air too

***
The cry drinks the silence of the water in which we were born inside the belly
The river of time washes away children's sand castles on an abandoned embankment

Shot apartment numbers and ruins of houses are overgrown with moss of memory
Sadness is preserved and time is the best dye for ashes

We know where we're going
We do not know

***
Time turns red.
Take a closer look:
Snowflakes are small skulls.
Quiet!
Is it the cracking under my feet or the cracking inside chest?

***
Wooly-apple buoyancy of the sky
Time is also water
And we drowned
