An image from the old testement and the end of an old dream.

 

two cities
 
Behind this window, two
cities are wiped out, transcendent.
A short intermission.
 
Passing without incident, glass
is a jealous guardian, sprinkled
on sleeping eyes.
 
I expect in this respect

one bleeds or goes thirsty.
 
Preaching destruction
to the city of Nineveh.
The prophet’s lips are wet with liquid fire.
 
Three winters since.
