It must be liberating to be up at this hour, running about in rags through the park, kicking at phantoms and flies, stretching under the watchful gaze of the few still functioning street lamps. I look down from behind glass and over the wall and long to steal a bit of his freedom. What would …

What he does, every day
In the morning, evading echt, he stands onefooted in a dark room. When the world awakes, he puts his foot down and steps in to the light. This, he does every day. The dark room, it is draped with symbolism, a goldflame so long an ubiety that whatever it might have stood for is forgotten. Until …
between justice and morals
A circle of deflated quwi surround this extended rat-faced snake, yet not a single one pierced—poisoned, yes, bitten, no. And now comes the farmer, machete wielding, farm communityjustice wielding, standing swinging over glutted serpent which raises an wishedfor hand, sly smiling — my teeth are clean — Quwi in hand, no marks no teeth, I should say but obese …
