Poem completed on 21. April

Unknown

Crouching on a beak
of a bird
tinier than Nils Holgersson
I report to save the world

High up we travel along the rivers

They sparkle and glisten
in diffuse light

Nervous cores
quicksilver veins

Hearts fell from the sky
like starlings
scattered
a mass grave
a pattern

One heart flies with me

unknown.
