Fancy goods

in the midst of a slow, almost motionless life
there remains for us the embers of a dream,
the sweet echo of having seen
the sunrise over solitary streets,

a refined surprise, a light green
chaos, the burning chill
a saint might feel in the snow
or blood on broken glass.

at all this solitude I used to laugh.

(From Intemperie, 1995)
