Carmen 21

Falling apart like the idea of ink

And I am broken like these blackened lines,

And in all these moments I have secrets.


I will tell you things that are like the clouds

And no rescue can come if you desire it.


So tell me a story of your sad life,

Single syllables like a Latin page

(Fine points like oil on the sea's dead floor)

And when I am again a wave

I will be without bars.
