An eye that
surrounded by
an open space
shuts itself in
- a woman who pulls
shut the shutters
of the universe
- an eye that
surrounded by
infinity
stares at a wall
- a loneliness that boasts
of its own
sufficiency

the precision of this
particular man
who hurriedly
measured
the enormity
of the flame
that suddenly
engulfed his mind
and this body
that was found
in the lake,
even though
you could see
the sea
and this is how
space and time
get to be drowned
in eternity

one of those things
that happen
during the spring
