LILLA LATUS

PERPETUUM MOBILE

my son broke

a piggy bank

he counted

money precisely

tomorrow

he will buy

another piggy bank

 

MIRAGE

a bridge between us

was lifted up and down

from my side

I saw gold mountains

-          they were in fact

only stone town

I kept running

light

lifted by breaths

on you

on the way back

the bridge spans

cracked

under my weight

 

UNTIL TOMORROW

today the air is so bad

all letters sent to the hearty address

are coming back to me

even time

is running away

and as far back as

yesterday

life made sense with

my hands

tomorrow…

tomorrow

is the most beautiful

day of the week
