1.

a fish
slithers
on blazing sand

showered in sun
it waits
for the drop

it swallowed in the ocean

the drop
in its belly
a sperm
to the ova of the sand

when the wait ends
and the fish dies

someone

someone will come
and slit the fish
an ocean will be born

an ocean
in my belly.

2.

in my intestine
there is a stone
three millimeters

three millimeters broad
oval
green

i ate it
3000 years ago
one evening

my body around it
rots
and the stone
laughs

3.

in conversation with
the crooked nail
of my left forefinger

my nosepin said last night-
and why my friend
does the earth spin?

the nail replied
i dreamt last night
of Tutenkhamoun

the nosepin irked, repeated
why my friend
does the earth spin?

the nail replied
i drew last night
a compression boiler

the nosepin said
i read last night
Tolstoy

the nail replied
because of gravity.
