The pneumatic vacuum

The pneumatic vacuum

Distant sirens call to work
but the work is not there are only memories
that exhale from asbestos clouds
of this red and already gray dawn
that remains inside like a wound.
But I who see everything strange
in this time from a sick thought,
I also hear an invincible song,
like the flower sprouting in the crack in the wall,
like the undaunted cry of the rooster…
