the airiness between our hands that remain above the rains
the coral dress you wore on the day of the sub aquatic breakfast your lover in chains like another kind of flesh covering the bones now when the watches marry each other and knit their hands on the roundness of the deserted hour now is the time of the stone that's dripping words and that tramcar covered in armour we know this is just Mr. Gill traveling incognito in his search of the Abyss this stillness where one can see only the traces of endless rhythms long ago all things had the name of some leaves of some trees of some other_things things came naturally then and landed on top of dreams we wore transparent chains round the ankle of our eyebrows we kissed with our fingertips on an unnamed street the houses were somewhat strange, had doors instead of windows and stairs grew on the roof at the entrance a pair of wings with usage instructions we knew then that there was no such thing as flying technique as there wasn't a technique for love in the shop across the street mister Gill's lover was silent far away even, in the things' dis_tance now usual we heard the tolerant noise of the steam engine we became serene with this return this strange closeness with an almost forgotten sound on the table the coffee mugs sitting there till our last silence on the window a trace of your kiss arrived with the wind mister Gill's linen shirt breathing soundly on the edge of the horizon the profound white orange lover, the uncolored juicy gray lover and so on above the hours an earth's bird imitates us there was a strange rush words got rid of their skin my lover caught my eye dressed as she was in the skin of a reptile I used to know from childhood ay, the abundance of breaths turned into rains the smell of linen of The Tallest Woman the laziness with which we let ourselves be trapped by the other mood on the streets paved with wrinkles mister Gill's lover stepped thus approving the search we fed ourselves with marine creatures using gestures sifted through an admirable sieve of oblivion we even had borrowed names and we called each other whispering always whispering so we don't hurt the butterflies' sleep when they were finished we shut up our eyelids dropped in the ashes another shape of the dream covered the love line and stung the silence with her eyelashes such strange closeness we discovered as we were sitting down on the cool edge of the glass fountain a gentleman with a memorable pipe sneezed bless you and many others we're healthy thanks and the goldilocks of my lover are expanding on several streets soon they will go downtown there will be a ceremony on ice-skates and admirable young women dressed in fish scales mister Gill's lover signals from the middle of things there she learned to seek shelter when things go wrong. and as we stood with our eyes wrapped in ashes we witnessed the passing of cohorts of giraffes through the air hungry for birds I'm looking for your shadow she's my sister my lover whispered with her breasts glued to the glass of darkness soon a silence was going on and the rains stopped pouring we wondered on the streets of the beginning like elderly giants mister Gill was writing us from the town Ics on a piece of linen just tell my lover I am sleeping I am surrounded by casual beings because there's not at all fall here and as for the rest whatever you like be_side the beginning the enchanting fills the void the night is sure to come two times a day
