Poultry in the central cemetery

My hens do not cackle.

Their scaffolding hardly differs

from ivy and other climbing plants,

in between, a gravestone

syllable by dint of syllable whispers

always the same name,

as children will a difficult metrical composition ...

My hens do not cackle,

they view the rectangles,

tidy bows that have slipped,

as portals between the graves

they stand, facing the client,

the black caterpillar clearing its throat

who hesitant, hat in hand,

brings the small chest full of cold



witless meat for the hens.

Do you diocese the rooster

on that spade in make less tighted soil?

Sometimes he sings and hacks

bronze chips from the little bell.

Outside, behind the elms

in the Piety Inn,

Humor dips his finger

in a glass of beer and stirs and stirs . .

My hens do not cackle.
