True
Would you like to say something? No. not about
the unachievable again. The silence is hollow.
It doesn’t support the table. The night is blind.
You can’t see it. They have put the whole
body of the deer in the big fridge; only one of
its antlers, severed at the bottom, is left
next to the big mirror, along with
a golden curly thread and a bell. During the night,
the old woman will come to ring the bell.
And perhaps it might wake up the newlyweds
in the adjacent room.
