I swear by the one who never says tomorrow, as the circle of the moon refuses to sell

installments of light. It gives all it has.

How do fables conclude, and who will explain them?

Every story is us. That’s who we are,

from beginning to no-matter-how it ends.

Should I use the pronoun we? The Friend walks by, and bricks in the wall feel

conscious. Infertile women give birth.

So beauty embodies itself.

Those who know the taste of a meal

are those who sit at the table and eat.

Lover and Friend are one being,

and separate beings too,

as the polisher melts

in the mirror’s face.
