How Long Cat Allergy Last After Exposure

An unpublished text of 2010.

Lightness inevitable sheet

surreptitious entry into the orbit crunchy resistant

white sheet and cutting hurts iris

I contemplate what has not been named yet.

Falcon décapuchonné killing multitudes of birds in the orange grove

a great whirl of feathers enrougies:

These are more confusing than clapping beaks become useless

that cacophony of torn greenhouses that hope disappointed takeoffs impossible

Small feathered body convulsively agitated hot sand

and die

forming the carpet of filth

I contemplate what has not been named yet, these tiny disasters agglutinated

these unimportant lives singing and are more than dead things

I bleed from the eye.
